The Priorities of Service

We should not overwhelm ourselves by doing good things while missing the things God has planned for us.  We tend to overload ourselves with “good” activities while leaving ourselves with too little time to commune with God.  How can we hear His calling if we are not spending time listening to Him?

We should also be alert to the possibility that we are doing so many “good” things that we are neglecting the needs of our own families.  As we listen for God’s calling, there is one certain aspect that will always be there.  Our Heavenly Father will insure that we have time to adequately care for the needs of our families first before we are extended any further.
