“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”~ Matt. 6:33
We have various lists, for example, things to do list, grocery list, and of course, our traditional Christmas list. And usually we prioritize the things on them according to their importance, or by how pressing they are. Then we start checking each off from top to bottom, as they’re accomplished.
In our Christian life God tells His children to put His Son at the top of their list of desires, and then He promises He will add the other things. To reverse the order is to experience subtractions from your life rather than the additions promised. No believer ever got ahead by putting Him second.
Speaking of priorities C.S. Lewis writes, “You can’t get second things by putting them first; you can get second things only by putting first things first.” He goes on to say, “Put first things first and we get second things thrown in: put second things first and we lose both first and second things.”
