The Order of Things

The order of things...... Kind of makes you wonder what I am talking about. This world beckons us to keep up with the Jones', to have the latest and greatest of everything, to be supermodel material at all times, to be everything the world wants us to be. 

STOP!!!!

Why? Why would we want all of those things? The answer may hurt. Because, when all of these things matter to you, you haven't put Jesus first in your life. People prioritize things by their level of importance. That is what we have been trained to do. Ask yourself, what is the most important things in my life? Answers would vary, but most people would probably have a short list that looks something like this:

1. Family - kids, husband, wife, etc.

2. Wealth/Stability

3. Church/Volunteering

Is that similar to the top three in your list in that order? What if just by changing that list, your entire life would change? What if you relinquished control? What if your list was like this?

1. Jesus

2. Jesus

3. Jesus

"But seek first his kingdom and righteousness, and all of these things will be given to you as well" Matthew 6:33

Nothing of this world can come with you when you go. Why not give every single piece of your life to the King? 

God Bless and Keep Smilin'
