We have talked about committing our day (our situation, our vacation, our plans) to God and asking Him to cause our thoughts to become agreeable to His will so that we will be established and have success. Of course, we want to have successful days and God-orchestrated events happening in our lives. In order for everything to fall into place so that we can feel successful, we will have to think like God thinks.
I got to thinking about how I could make this connection between God’s thoughts and my thoughts. How could I clear the lines, so to speak so that I could have a more defined connection between God and me?
When I laid this before God, I felt like I was to narrow my focus. I felt led to make a list of the things that were very important to me and number them in the order of which one was the most important, etc. Take a minute to do that for yourself.
Write down the things that are important to you.
Number them in order of importance.
Evaluate how much time you are spending on each of your items.
I soon realized that my top priority was full of good intentions but I was spending very little time on it. My schedule needed to be rearranged to accommodate that one thing that was important to me. Then I added the second and third most important things. In doing this I learned that if I were to be productive in the areas of my priorities some things would have to go. We’ll talk more about that tomorrow but take today’s “assignment” to God and ask Him to help you prioritize.
It’s more important than you know!
It’s more important than you know!
