SEEK GOD FIRST
II Samuel 6:9
"David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said, 'How can the ark of the LORD come to me?' "
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding" (Proverbs 9:10). If David had sought the LORD to begin with to get God's knowledge and understanding, he might have saved himself a lot of pain, anger, and anguish. How much this is like me. I get an idea and I run with it without seeking God's will. When it ends up in disaster, then I ask God for His plan. Jesus said to seek first the kingdom of God (Matthew 6:33). This is the proper order of things.
TODAY'S PRINCIPLE: Seeking God first will prevent a lot of pain.

Have a "seeking God first" day. Love you.
