Don’t Put God First
That’s right, don’t put God first! With the beginning of a new year, a lot of people are re-prioritizing their lives. Typically, people’s priorities will look like this:
- God
- Family
- Ministry
- Work
- Friends
- Etc.

Have you ever not achieved a goal? Maybe you’ve always wanted to get in shape, but you never have. Maybe you’ve wanted to save a certain amount of money or pay off a certain amount of debt, but you haven’t. Maybe you’ve always wants to strengthen your relationship with God, but each year you don’t feel like you’ve grown at all.
I’ve been there. In fact, as I was going through my goals I set for myself in 2011, there were a lot I did not accomplish. Interestingly enough, the ones that I wanted to accomplish the most are the same ones I didn’t accomplish. That is frustrating. Have you been there?
“You can climb the ladder of success, but when you get to the top you may find it is leaning against the wrong building.”
Do you find yourself wishing for things a lot? I hear a lot of people things like:
I wish I was a millionaire.
I wish I lived in a mansion.
I wish I was successful.
I wish I was a missionary in Africa.
I wish I was doing something I loved!
I wish I had a significant other.
