Another God before me? Who?

I'm debating making a tuna fish sandwich or going outside to weed... tough decision but I think my stomach will rule on this one!

I thought our church service today included a good thought provoking message. It was on the 10 commandments and today was about the first - Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Our biggest God we put before Him is our self... think about it. We put our self, our needs, wants, desires, etc... before Him. Why? Because we a selfish. What we really need to learn is if we put Him first all of our needs, wants, desires, etc.. will fall into place because putting Him first means He is directing your life and they will ultimately be his needs, wants, desires, etc... His perfect will which promises us peace.

Have you ever heard the statement "Let go and let God?" It's hard to let go and trust something we cannot see... that's where we live by faith. If you don't have enough faith then pray for more and you will surely get a go around with your faith..  a lesson in faith if you will. Letting go allows us to relax, teaches us patience and frees our time to enjoy life.

Where do you place most of your attention? Too many "things" are replacing time in the word.... make time for God and he will make time for you.
