Refocus your priorities
When you get to the end of your life (hopefully, many years from now), your regrets will almost certainly be the result of misplaced priorities. Life’s biggest regrets are often about wasted time or not putting enough time towards the people and priorities that should have mattered most. Take an honest assessment of your routine. Where are you spending your best energies? A simple priority list should be to put God first, family second and everything else after that. Putting God first doesn’t mean you’re sitting in a church service every waking hour. It means that you’re prioritizing a growing relationship with Jesus in all parts of your life until even your day job becomes an act of worship. Prioritizing your family doesn’t necessarily mean you quit your job to be with them 24/7, but it does mean you give them your best energies and not your leftovers. What’s getting your best right now? If it’s not your faith and your family, make the courageous choice to re-prioritize.
“Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.” Matthew 6:33
