Thanks for the post - it's something I need to re-focus on, as I often get off track. That’s one of my favorite Biblical verses, though it’s one I often forget & rediscover.

The budgeting and investing stuff is excellent, but it comes *downstream* -- it's hard to do, but involves transformation in how we think, what we desire, how we act (heart, mind, strength, and soul). It also needs to be radical and counter-cultural: "I tell you the truth," Jesus replied, "no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—and with them, persecutions) and in the age to come, eternal life. Bob,

It is so true that everything else falls into place only when we put God first. I, for one, am prone to drifting toward doing things on my own and considering God later. Bob,

Thanks for the reminder. It is so true that everything else falls into place only when we put God first. I, for one, am prone to drifting toward doing things on my own and considering God later.

My brother just shared these verses with me this morning:
Ps. 91
14Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

15He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

16With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

I know it is for me. As you just proved, spending time in the Word is essential to getting us recalibrated to keeping the Main Thing the main thing!
