You may have heard the story about the woman whose favorite pet died. She brought it to the local pastor to ask if he could give the dog a proper burial. He answered somewhat snootily, that he wasn’t accustomed to having formal rites for an animal. She picked up her dead pet and then remarked she intended to donate a new church bus in honor of the dog. The pastor remarked, “My goodness! Why didn’t you say that was a Baptist dog?”
Priorities are a key to life. Without priorities, an individual drifts aimlessly. Not only do priorities allow us to follow and reach a God-given vision, priorities produce a balanced life. In one of his letters, C. S. Lewis wrote: “Put first things first and we get second things thrown in: Put second things first and we lose both first and second things.” In addition, priorities reveal character, or perhaps, I should say living by priorities reveals character. When an individual faces tough decisions, established priorities prevents panic, despair, and anxiety. As situations arise, base your decisions on pre-chosen priorities.
