Proper Place

I have set the Lord always before me; because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.

- 1 John 5:10-13, NKJV

We place a lot of things in our lives before God; however, nothing and no one should ever go ahead of Him. Know that when our mind and our actions drift away from Him we lose focus on what is truly important in our lives, Him. So is it any wonder that a world so consumed by the “here” and “now is also absorbed in things that are not of God? Far too often we take God out of our decisions, out of our work, out of our education, and out of our joy, but then question His availability and authority when situations that “we” never included Him go sideways…seemingly hoping that the lives we built on such a shaky foundation will somehow withstand life’s storms. However, if we just put God back in His proper place, as the head of our lives…the beginning and end to our situations, then we will receive proper counsel, and all of our plans/actions will be established with a solid and everlasting foundation. Understand we are not built to go at this thing called life alone; rather, intended to go through it with God as the author and director of all actions…so why not let Him conduct it accordingly? Today let us elevate God back to His proper place as Lord over our lives…then watch how He keeps us with His mighty hand.

BE BLESSED!
