Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree, I don't know where to put thee

I had a real hard time trying to fit our Christmas tree into our living room. No matter how I arranged the furniture in the living room there was not a good place for the tree. Then I thought about removing some of the furniture to make a place for the tree. I couldn't get rid of the couch or love seat because they were needed for seating, Bert's favorite chair - definitely a no. Lamps were needed, entertainment center - well that would not go over real well. I wasn't willing to get rid of any of the comforts to make room for the tree. Then God showed me that my living room was like my heart and the Christmas tree represented Jesus and time with Him. The furniture represented all the things in my life. Were there things in my life that no matter how I moved them around there was only a small place for Jesus or no room at all. Did I need to remove some of these things in order to make room for Jesus? Was I willing to give up some of these things in order to make Jesus a priority or was I making excuses for why I thought I needed to keep these comfortable things part of my life.
Now there was no solution to the tree problem, (except I bought a smaller tree) but I can do something about making God more of a priority in my life without making excuses for not putting Him first.
