In this essay, we would like to dwell on the priorities of a person in everyday life as well as in professional life. We would like to prove that priorities are important driving forces in relationships and effectiveness. We will try to prove that with the help of God you can make your life easier.
If we look in the dictionary we will see that it explains priority as something that is more important than other thing. Every person lives with a certain set of priorities which influence all the decisions in life. Sometimes people know what are their priorities and with the help of that knowledge they can easily set goals and succeed in their life. But more often people are not aware of their priorities and it is where all the confusion begins. Our priorities influence our choices and every person's life consist of them. Human perception always determined by a choice. All of us, without exception, choose for ourselves something that suits better. Facing the world, we will never be able to learn everything, however, we accept some elements and exclude others. Some things are interesting and the other is not but what influence the interest? Priorities! The Bible is a thing that can help a person to set up his or her priorities.
For every Christian the list of priorities will be look similar to this one:
God (we should seek the kingdom of God first (Matthew 6:33));
Family (husband and wife come after you made God your family );
Church;
Work (a person is created to work and it is not optional it is obligatory).
Nowadays, a lot of young people can find themselves lost. Their list of priorities may begin with themselves and work because making money for a living is something that the whole world worships now. People do not read the Bible because they think that it is a waste of time and it is not that important (Watson, 2013). They do not even expect that the Bible can have all the needed answers that can help to organize the priorities and have a successful life.
I believe that those who understood this truth can help and influence the others. The only question is how we can do this? We cannot just come to a person and force to read the Bible. The only acceptable way is to provide an example of your own. Show how easy and organized your life is because of set priorities. When you will have your priorities listed you will see the result.
The relationships with God is the first and the most important priority of all. When you will understand it and listen to the words of God everything will become easier. God tells us what you should do and how many time certain things deserve you just have to listen attentively (Ingram, 2014). Your effectiveness will increase because now you will not be guessing what is more important and better for you. The relationships with a family will become stronger. There will not be problems because your family is more important than your work. And you should dedicate all the spare from work time for your family.
In a nutshell, living due to the Christian priorities can and will make your life better and easier. Only with the help of God you will see the aim in this life and will show you the right route in order to achieve it. Modern society deviates from the religion more and more just saying that they have no time. They hurry to make money and live a happy life but in the chase, they lose everything that was really important. That is why priorities are of an utmost importance in our lives.
