Day 2 - Priority One

Exodus 20:3 You must not have any other god but me.
God has always wanted to have a place of number one priority in His creations lives.  This is not because God is petty or controlling.  It is because God knows what is best for us and longs help us.  When my kids were young they wanted things that where not good for them.  As parents, Julie and I had to tell them "NO" at times to keep them on the right path.  Often times kids don't appreciate their parents direction.  Often times we don't appreciate the guidance God gives us in our lives.   God asks us to place Him at a place of priority in our lives because He loves us and wants the best for us.  What is it in your life that keeps coming before God?  Relationships? Family? Habits? 
Matthew 6:21 Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.
God also knows our hearts and He knows if God is our number one priority that He will have our heart.  If we can learn to treasure God and His presence over all other things, our hearts will belong completely to God.  We can always know what we really treasure by the way we spend our time and money!  If we say we treasure God and we don't spend any time of money on our relationship with God, we are only giving God our words and not our heart. 
Matthew 6:33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
