God First (Poem)

Not enough time in the day

To do all the things you need to do?

Your priorities are out of whack.

Consider placing God's demands

Above other people's and your own.

Look at Christ Jesus, someone

Who was never stressed out or hurried,

Yet was always on time for healing.

Why was this, do you think?

Could one reason have been,

"I do always those things that please him"?

(John 8:29)

A holy example, this.

But something all can shoot for.

Even the willingness to pray,

May this day be lived the way,

Heavenly Father, You know is best

Will begin adjusting circumstances

As only God can do.

Wanting to please Him,

And do things His way,

Can't help but weed out the

Unnecessary in your day-to-day.

There will then be enough time

For Him -- first don't forget --

And time enough for you.
