Short thought of the day.
[Prayer > People > Production]
Meaning this:
Communing with God comes first. Like very, very, very first. Before anything. Knowing and loving Him is most important. Talking with Him and listening to Him. That’s what should set the tone.
Loving and knowing people. That’s secondly most important. Listening to them, walking with them, loving on them – creating community – it’s what the Church is about.
Last comes the work. The production. It needs to get done. It is important, but it never comes before God or His people. Never.
What’s amazing is how when you get the order right – it flows. When you make spending time with God the first priority it flows into your relationships. When you put others in front of your work the product becomes richer and better.
That’s what I’m working on. Being mindful of the current of my life.
Here’s to a new semester!
