Thoughts
It was my son's first elk hunt. His grandfather, a couple of friends and I were working our way back to our trucks when I stopped to take a break and was separated for just a moment from the rest of the group. In that split second (okay, maybe a minute or two), he spotted an elk. I suddenly heard a cow call just in time to look up and see him take a shot. At age 13, he had taken his first elk.

Have you ever considered how important first's are:
-the first time you fell in love;
-first kiss;
-first time your child said "Dada" or "Mama";
-the first day of the new year--a favorite for new resolutions;
-your first big game draw and first big game success;
-your first car?

God made first's to be special in our lives because they are special to Him. When speaking of giving to God, King Solomon instructs us to "give Him the first and the best". (BM)

Action Point
In all parts of your life, give God your first's--the first part of your day through prayer and devotions; the first part of your week by going to church; the first part of your paycheck--to name just a few. Remember how important first's are to you and know that they are just that special to God. Give God your first's and see if He doesn't "burst your barn".
