First... hmm....
My
husband’s favorite bible verse is Matthew 6:33 “Seek ye first the kingdom of
God and all these things will be added to you.” When I hear the word 'first' that is where my mind immediately goes.
'Seek ye first the kingdom of God'
I
desire to rise early and call to God first.
I
want to be in His word first.
I
pray I will earnestly seek Him first.
As
choices arise and opportunity comes by, may I first look to Him.
As
decisions are made, I pray I turn to Him first.
As thoughts linger near, I pray I give all to Him.
As thoughts linger near, I pray I give all to Him.
As
moments come both large and small, may I fully enjoy them all because I am looking to
my Creator first.
What
do I want to come first in 2016?
His
way. His truth. His light.
May
I not walk according to my desires.
May
I not rely on truth as I see it.
May
I not attempt to be separate from Him.
He
is the way, the truth, the light.
May
He come first.
No,
that sounds too passive. May I put Him first.
May
my first be Him.

Visiting from FMF. Great post - serves to remind me of what (who) is worth pursuing "first" this year. (and always)
