Prioities

I've been reading 1st Kings this week, I noticed again the disparity in Solomon's time priorities in the following two verses.

In the fourth year the foundation of the house of the Lord was laid, in the month of Ziv. And in the eleventh year, in the month of Bul, which is the eighth month, the house was finished in all its parts, and according to all its specifications. He was seven years in building it. (1 Kings 6:37-38 ESV)

Compare that to:

Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished his entire house. (1 Kings 7:1 ESV)

Thirteen years on his house but only seven years on God's house? This shows clearly where King Solomon's priorities were. Is it any wonder that he turned away from the Lord?
