Priorities


Do you ever fell like your life is chaotic and out of control? Like you never have enough time for everything? Maybe it's time to get your priorities straight, "For God is not a God of disorder but of peace." (1Corinthians 14:33) How do you do that?
First, make a list of things that you spend time doing daily and a list of things you do weekly. Reorder the lists with things you must do (sleep, eat) at the top and then list the remaining activities in order of what means most to you.
Map out approximately how many hours you spend doing the mandatory things and subtract that time from 24 for your daily time and 168 for your weekly total.
Start analyzing the want-to-do activities and adding them into your schedule, asking with each one, "Will the time I have to spend on this be enough to do it to my full ability in order to glorify God?" If not... you need to seriously think of giving it up. Remember that you need time enough to put forth your best effort for Christ and also to be alert and learn from Him!
"So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God." -1 Corinthians 10:31

In Christ Alone,
Becky :)
