The Most Important Thing Is…
What?
What is the most important thing to you?
Find it and Live it!
For me, my priorities are God, My Beautiful Wife and Family, and then my Friends and Community. That comes before work and the rest of life.
Audrey Hepburn says… “The most important thing is to enjoy your life - to be happy - it's all that matters.” but is it?
I agree it is important to enjoy your life and be happy, but what helps you enjoy your life? What makes you happy?
That is what is most important.
I believe that God is the beginning of all things! He is who created joy and all that we enjoy!
Mark 12:29 says… “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'" This verse essentially summarizes the first commandment,
The theologian A. W. Tozer famously said, “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us”
God has a Purpose for our lives.
Next He gives us Family. Mine starts with my Beautiful Wife who encapsulates everything beautiful from God in my life! After God, she is my rock and with her we have two amazing children, 34 and 31 and a wonderful daughter-in law.
We have extended family beyond that that are so important to us and then our friends! This is where connection and community really come together.
“The need for connection and community is primal, as fundamental as the need for air, water, and food.” - Dean Ornish
We need each other, and we are truly Better Together!
Join this Amazing community --
A fundamental human need is people. Community!
After our family our community is who shapes us and molds us into who we are.
“Our character is mainly shaped by our primary social community – the people with whom we eat, play, converse, and study.” - Timothy Keller
So, the environment is so important to all we become, and what is most important to us.
It shapes our thoughts.
And, we become what we think about.
If you are having challenges in life, change your environment and change what you think about.
As Craig Groeschel says, “Change your thinking… Change your life!”
So today, think about what is most important to you.
Do a life evaluation of your thoughts and actions.
Do you love where you are… or is it time to make a change?
Remember, You Get to Live the Life You Choose!
Blessings.
