It’s a very simple question, isn’t it?  “How important is he (God)?”  We practically jump out of our seats to say, “He is all there is.  Without Him I would be nothing, so He is of the highest importance to me.”  But what if I could have everything I ever wanted, and even those things I Didn’t know I needed, without God?  What if I could live today with the assurance of full health, safety, and prosperity for myself and everyone I cared for? What if every day held the prospect of greatness for me, and those I love, without God. How important would He be to me then? Maybe a better question is, “ Do I love His blessings, or do I love Him?” This morning, by God’s power and for His glory we will delve into this subject.  Pray that He is the teacher this morning, for we surely need guidance.
