Two weeks ago in my blog post Fourth Place, I wrote about a teaching God revealed to me that was so remarkable but yet so simple.

God is first in my life.

My wife Kim is second.

My fellow man is third.

And I am fourth.

The past couple of weeks as a four have been a learning curve for me.

The biggest challenge is all of the one wannabes out there. Until this teaching was brought to light, I guess I never really paid that much attention. But wow. The world is so upside down from where God wants it to be. I guess the teaching God gave to me in Fourth Place hasn’t gotten around to everybody that claims to be His child yet.

Every day I ask the LORD to help me be a four.

Some days are good. Some days are bad. Some one wannabes are getting easier to be a four to, but there are others who are past one wannbes, they are one havetabes. Whenever I see them coming, my hackles come up and I make up my mind that I ain’t gonna be no four. No way. No how. Then my witness is completely blown.

Some people ask if I am trying too hard.

Jesus said, “He who has ears let him hear.”

Do you hear?

Are you a four in a world of one wannabes?
