Put GOD first!

PSALM 127:1-2
Unless the LORD builds the house,
those who build it labor in vain.
Unless the LORD guards the city,
the guard keeps watch in vain.
It is in vain that you rise up early
and go late to rest,
eating the bread of anxious toil;
for he gives sleep to his beloved.

Lord,
the psalm writer is clear:
Put the LORD first!

Work, rest, eating, toil,
building, guarding...
it is all nothingness
if You, Lord, are not first in all things.

Today, Lord,
I will put You first,
so that at the end of my days
I will rest forever in your embrace.
Amen.
