Years ago, there was a big stink about a General Motors decision. It seems that GMC truck owners were furious to learn that GM had quietly closed their premium GMC truck engine plant and had begun to put Chevy engines into their GMC trucks. You see, GMC is the expensive line of Chevy trucks, and the GMC truck owners expected to have better engines in their expensive trucks. They felt that General Motors had deceived them using inferior engines. Hey, often we are deceived. We expect one thing, but we get an inferior thing instead. But, could we be deceiving ourselves? Paul said in Galatians 6:7&8, “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.” If we want what is best for ourselves, we will invest in our spiritual lives. Can I be brutally honest? What’s in your heart? Do you have a cheap, worldly heart? Or do you have a Godly, spiritual heart that is in tune with heaven above? Don’t be deceived. Better yet, don’t deceive yourself. Put God first, and you’ll never be sorry that you did.
