What are your priorities? Have you asked yourself this question lately? I found this article by Robert Fudge touching a nerve.

"Oh, how I love your law! . . . How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!" (Psalm 119:97, 103) . . . How much do we really love the word of God? . . . It is so easy for us to read this Psalm and say we love God, his word, his law and his commandments but do we really? When we are asked about our priorities we will almost always say that God is the most important thing in our lives . . . After all, Jesus said we are to seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and we are to love the Lord God with all our heart and all our soul. So we say we do.
In my attic is a box with a trophy I received many years ago after playing in a golf tournament at what was at the time a leading PGA course in Las Vegas. When I am asked, I often tell people I love to play golf. What that really means (as shown by my practice and my life) is that I play at least once or twice a year – at least most years. In a really good year I may even play five or six times. On a really good day I can come close to breaking a hundred. Now some of my friends and co-workers would say I don’t really love golf or I would play a lot more than this. I would put more effort and time into it.
Is this how we love God and his word? We may open our Bible once in a while and read a few verses? We talk about spiritual things if we are with the preacher? We seldom ever let going to church interfere with other activities that actually fill our lives and consume our time? When was the last time we spent an hour reading and studying God’s word? When was the last time we spent an hour at the ball field, watching television, reading Facebook or other things we really love? -- Robert Fudge
