Putting God First

For you have been my hope, Sovereign Lord , my confidence since my youth.

Psalm 71:5‭ NIV

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Mathew 6:33 NIV

I very vividly remember a race in kindergarten, we had to tie our shoelaces and run. Mom said, "Just make the sign of the cross and run.." and on 'Go' I did just that, and boy what a victory it was, coming first and receiving a trophy can light up anyone's day or perhaps a lifetime. The point is the focus, at that point, my focus was not tying the lace or finish line, it was on making the sign of the cross. Off course, I did practice tying my laces and running and it all fell in place. Our God is a Good and He always wants the best for you, but the question is do you want the best for yourself?

If Yes, then you put God first in everything, not to say that you don't do anything, You have to do your bit. If Faith is blind, where do you think it will lead you? Faith is based on trust and trust is built over time as a relationship grows. The more your relationship grows with God the more you will realize that you can trust him and the more you trust in Him the more your Faith increases. And you will realize that He is all that matters, for when He comes first everything that is his, is given to you.

I pray that you experience the love of God our Father, and build a solid relationship with him through his Son Jesus. And May His Holy Spirit be with you always.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)
