I remember a someone I know who dream to marry who love God first. The dream came through as the question got answered correctly. This question meant more in times of great trials. Its hard to decide.

I love myself. For my sake I love my wife,children and family. I love them,because I get pleasure by loving them. I don't know whether I love God or fear.

Jesus said the first and greatest commandment is "Love the Lord your God with your whole heart, with your whole soul and with all your strength." The second is like it "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." Jesus summarized the Ten Commandments into these two. The first three of the Ten Commandments pertain to love of God. The next 7 pertain to love of others beginning with parents. If we love God first, then God who made us and gave us our lives, will be with us to guide and bless our relations with our spouses, families and friends. GOD covers all areas of our lives that is why HE should be first. In times of trials, pray and seek GOD's Will just the same because He can show us the way. How? He can speak to us in our hearts and minds. He can send us people to talk to us. He can show us situations that will show His Will. If we put HIM first in everything, our lives, family, relations, career will be in good order.

Think it as this: If you didn't ever go to a church, you were abondoned, never knew about your god. Would you love the god or person you do not know? You would not know what to do, you would look to nothing for guidance. But your true god loves you and keeps you alive, with protection. But he doesn't tell you about him.
