Many times when things seem mixed up and out of sorts, it may be that we have gotten our priorities wrong. God calls out to us to seek Him early - or in other words, put Him first. I encourage you to seek Him early:
- in the morning, before you get up;
- before you start a journey or travel anywhere;
- before you start your work day or any task;
- before you begin anything.
Do this first:
- before you are distracted;
- before obstacles get in the way;
- before you are interrupted;
- while you are still young and life still offers hope, energy and potential (Ecclesiastes 12:6-7).
Seek first the Kingdom of God. If you do this, all else will fall into place, in proper order. (Matthew 6:32-34). Remember, Christ must be first in all, so He is assuredly at the end of all.
God bless you today as you seek Him. You will find Him (Jeremiah 29:13). He has promised to be found and He is faithful to keep all His promises (2 Corinthians 1:20-22; 1 Thessalonians 5:24). Amen.
This reminds me of my Sunday School's Song.

Surely this must be
J-esus first,Y-ourself Last,O-thers in between."
And also reminds me that it is always important to remember the One who should come first and give priority.
Good works!
