Place God First in your Thoughts

Undated

From:

Sri Sathya Sai

Dear Child,

Man has the rare good fortune of being able to adore nature as the body of God and offer grateful worship to it. But, is he conscious of God being its source and sustenance?

Does he give God the first place in his thoughts which is His due, or is he engaged in the activities of life in total disregard of God? It is a pity that, instead of paying attention to God, nature and Man, in that order, men today are concerned most with themselves, more with nature and very much lesser with God!

From birth to death, from dawn till night, man pursues fleeting pleasures. The exploitation of the property of God, the Creator, and any injury caused to it is a sacrilege which merits dire punishment.

Baba.
