What is first in your life? Is it family? Is it working to provide a good life for yourself and/or others? Is it getting a good education? Is it going on vacations regularly? Whatever it is, are you dedicating pretty much the bulk of your time and energy to whatever you've chosen as your ultimate goal in life? Well, there's nothing wrong with any of them that I've mentioned, in and of themselves. But are you dedicating as much of your time and energy to God? If you aren't, then you're missing the most important and vital key to life. And when it comes down to decisions, if you choose to dedicate yourself to anything, and put Jesus second, then He tells us, with no apologies, that we have no part of Him.
