“We must put God in the forefront of everything else in our lives. …
“When
we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place or drop
out of our lives. Our love of the Lord will govern the claims for our
affection, the demands on our time, the interests we pursue, and the
order of our priorities.
“We should put God ahead of everyone else in our lives” (“The Great Commandment—Love the Lord,” Ensign, May 1988, 4).
