priorities

What are your priorities?  I just read the first chapter in a new book that I'm reading called PUSH by Chalene Johnson.  She started out the chapter by telling us that most people who are unhappy with their lives compared to those who are happy and successful are not setting their priorities correctly.  Either they don't have any or they just don't care enough to have them at the top of their list.  One of my priorities is to let God be the center of my life.  This can be tough when the rest of the world gets in the way or tries to anyway because Satan drags you down each time you do something for God or get closer to Him.  It can be extremely tough.  However, Chalene had also asked a series of questions that helped you think about your top priority and why it's important to you and why it should be your top priority.  She also explained that your top three priorities are the things in your life that if you had them stripped from you would don't know what you would do.  Such as family, faith, career, health.... whatever it may be.  For me, I realized nothing else matters unless God is at the center.  I can want SO badly for my career to change and be successful or my body to change so I can finally be different but without Him being in the middle of it all, none of that matters!  You need to WANT that priority to be the center or at the top at all times.  What good is it when it's not?  What good is God to me when I choose not to put Him at the top?  Or let's rephrase that.... what good am I? 

I am NOTHING without Him so why should I live my life any differently?  After you come up with your top priority, you're supposed to write down a paragraph or statement if you will on how you will do this.  I have not perfected mine yet because I want to choose different words to make it stronger to me but my rough draft is "My number one priority is to put God first in all areas of my life.  I will seek Him first though His word, mediation, being silent and listening intently to what His will is for my life.  To show others what the Truth of God is and allow God to work in others' lives as I am just the messenger.  Be a witness of His love, patience, kindness, faithfulness, and joy because He has given those to me.  In return, God's grace and mercy will be shown to those around me and they will see only Him.  My mind, body, and soul will be rejuvenated and restored thank to God's presence in all aspects of my life."

Now, like I said, it'll change a little bit but overall this is my top priority.  What's yours?
