Put God First

2010, Positive Living Newsletter / by Rev. John W. Adams

The wise person always puts God first in every aspect of daily living. This means that he begins with God each morning in which he practices the presence of God in prayer and meditation. Then in everything he does during the day, he quietly lets God make decisions through him and be his guidance.

I have found that too often people will tend to put God second or third, or even further down the scale of importance. They mistakenly believe that God is too busy to bother with the things they are concerned with, or that they must take care of things themselves. That is always the wrong decision, and it implies separation from God which is impossible.

To be truly successful and prosperous in life, put God first. Take Him into everything you do. Acknowledge His loving, wise presence within you, in the people you meet during the day, and in every thing you do.

The wise person, who truly desires to prosper, always puts God first in his finances, which means to give back to God, ten percent of his whole income in acknowledgment of God as his source. To use that money for something else implies fear and lack and only produces one thing: More lack.

Whatever you desire to have, do, be, or achieve, put God first. When you do, life is easier, lovelier, more prosperous and fulfilling. – Lovingly, Rev. John

A Little Humor. . .

One day I took my girlfriend for a ride in my new car. I was studying the high-tech dashboard, which had a lighted panel to alert the driver to any situation requiring attention. During our drive, a warning light flashed, and I read the message aloud. Low fuel, I announced. My girlfriend, who had been staring out the window, turned to me and replied, I love you too, dear.

In the mail. . .
