Put God First!

This wonderful little poem, by an unknown author, was in our Sunday School paper yesterday.  If you happened to read it, it will still be profitable for you, along with me, to read it again!

     "Don't wait until the house is all kept, the beds are made, the floors are swept:
             Put PRAYER first.

      Don't wait until the newspaper is read, your books are balanced, and you are in bed:
            Put the BIBLE first.

      Don't wait until the cupboards are bare, there's nothing to depend on but God and prayer:
            Put FASTING first.

      Don't wait until the last bill is paid, the account is large; vacation is made:
            Put the CHURCH first.

      Don't wait until you've nothing to do, until all is finished --- for we never get through:
            Put GOD first!"

"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."  Matthew 6:33
