If you're completely honest what do you place above God?

We all put something above God at some point. Money? Brisket? New car? Our children?

Let's be honest.

To some extent fear in the form of anxiety. I know this is true because faith quenches fear therefore anxiety is a barometer of your faith.

So if a person suffers from anxiety, they have very little faith?

Above God? Nothing. If I do so, may I repent.
There are many things in which I struggle to obey and fight against mainly because they draw me out of my comfort zone.
For example, we had a member of our church end up homeless this weekend. My house is rather small and only has one bathroom. I have a family. Do I bring the person and his mom into my house? Do I invite them to tent in my backyard? Do I find them a hotel? Will my family agree with my decision? How far am I willing to go? Will I go beyond my comfort zone and trust God?

I think I would have to say my depression and anxiety when I have bouts of them. Otherwise I value time I can have for myself.

Due to some recent health issues, I am reminded that God is in control and thank him everyday for a continued chance at life.
