"Do you ever think about priorities? You know - the things that are important to us? Well, here's a little chart to remind us of several of the things that we may establish as "priorities". As you can see, there are a vast range of priorities - and while not every one of these things may make it to your list, I think it's safe to say that we all could call several of these things, "important". Let's run a little expirament to see what someone - anyone - might consider a priority. Just follow the directions, and let's see what happens! |

any black square.
Step 2: Move left or right to the nearest red square. Step 3: Move up or down to the nearest black square. Step 4: Move diagonally to the nearest red square. Step 5: Move left or right to the nearest black square. |

Isn't it true that while there are a multitude
of things that we can (and do) consider, "important" in our
lives - that the most important thing of all
is (or should be) our relationship with the Lord, Jesus Christ?
That relationship - a personal relationship
- should be the number one most important aspect of our lives. Sure - we
need love, and we need food and water. Money is very important, and we
can't live without sleep... but above all else... we need Jesus. Paul said,
"for
me, to live is Christ, and to die, gain!" That means that while we
are here on this earth - we should be about the business of knowing Christ
in a personal way.
