Heavenly Father, I know how easy it is for people and things, activities and customs, to creep into my life and push You from the throne of my life. Help me to stay ever close to You in thought, word, and deed, knowing that only as You are lifted up on the throne of my life, will the things of this world take their proper, subordinate place. In Jesus' name I pray, AMEN.
