God Is Priority Or Pointless
Your relationship with God is NOT to be treated as a backup plan. There is NO substitute for God in your life. God is either the priority of your life, or he is pointless in your life because He does not and most certainly will not fit in any other spot than first place. You must know the role that God actually serves in your life, then you can properly identify whether or not there is a substitute operating in His place. Now look over this list and determine for yourself if you have any substitution in the place of God.
