April 8

For whom are you living your life? Is it your kids, husband, wife, boss, parents, or someone else? If your answer is anything but God, you're starting in the wrong place. Now I'm not saying you shouldn't obey those in authority over you, you are supposed to do that, but what I am saying is that you must first dedicate your entire life to Him for things to be in proper order. Strive to please Him first. When you make Him number one, the rest of your life will fall into place. It may not be comfortable and cozy, but God will be proud. As a matter of fact, if you are feeling comfortable with your life, you're probably not within God's will! I believe that many disorders, sickness, and the stress we suffer from, could be healed if we just got this one thing right. May it never be said of me that I loved the glory that comes from pleasing man rather than the glory that comes from God!

for they loved the glory that comes from man more than the glory that comes from God. John 12:43
