Seize the Moment – Day 650
Protecting Priorities!
Good morning! This is Pastor Jerry Ingalls from New Castle First Baptist Church and today is Monday, December 27.
Have you ever heard someone say, “Happy wife, happy life”?
While such a statement does not allow for an idolatrous view of marriage and family, it does call you to realize that right priorities make for a holy and healthy life. If you make the decision to get married, then you must protect and prioritize that relationship. If you and your spouse decide to have children, then you need to work together to figure out how to partner to prioritize the raising of those children. Neither marriage nor having children are required of you to live a holy life, but if you decide to follow either path, then you must accept the consequences of your decision by protecting and prioritizing the responsibilities those decisions require of you!
This is an amazing teaching that demonstrates the power of shared priorities. But it also reveals how difficult it can be to protect your priorities when you live in a culture that doesn’t share them, and even works against them!
What decisions do you need to make to protect your priorities in your daily life?
Seize the moment and prioritize time and energy to the priorities of your life today!
