But I have this against you,
that you have left your first love.
—Revelation 2:4
Today we want to invite you to study the course Wise Men weekly.
Read what the author shares: "Have you left your first love? Who is your first love? Is your wife, your work, your hobby, your children, or your sports your first love? Who or what is really first in your life? “He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me” (Matt. 10:37). The Scripture in Revelation says: “But I have this against you, that you have left your first love” (Rev. 2:4).
Seek first. You are to put Him first in your priorities, first in your day, and first in your heart. “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” (Matt. 6:33). What is the first thing you do each morning? What should you do first? Ask yourself these questions: Are the things that I’m doing of eternal value? Will what I do today help to increase His kingdom? Do I seek after His righteousness? Remember, our righteousness is like dirty rags (Isa. 64:6)."
Also, let´s read what other men shared:
"I see that God has been speaking to me after this search for spirituality...when I wake up I ask God to be my guide, in my actions and my words! I have walked with my heart at peace despite the adversities and my wife's opposition to restoring our marriage, but I know that God, who is our Lord and Savior, is acting, and what seems impossible will happen for us to praise and glorify in the face of the restoration of this family."
God be praised!

"It has confirmed what has been in my heart, "that our home has been out of order". Got want our relationships to be in the proper order, God first, then our spouses, then children and everything else follows. Our first love should be God. I know this is what God is doing for my family. But it had to start with me."
- Jeffrey Darst
"I learned that it is important for God to be first in our day, heart, life, and finances(above everyone and everything). And to treat or Wives with respect as the weaker partner, and to protect, praise, uplift, and to encourage them. I would like to say is to put God first in all situations given it up to Him. He in control no matter how things seem."
- Raksmey Hom Im

Hello, I learned that we must put God first, he must come before my wife, before my work, before my children, before my projects. I agree with you, however, the reality is very hard to live with. because my wife continues to despise me humiliates me, lies to me and cheats on me she pushes me away emotionally etc what to do in the face of all this I am overwhelmed Help me I read the site dedicated to women with testimonials but I can’t find it on the men’s site testimonies of men who have seen their marriage restored Thank you for educating me.
