Daily Word: We need to get our priorities straight!

It's easy to become so busy that we are oblivious to those in need. Our schedules can become so full of accomplishing " good things " that we are of no help the people around us. God is at work in the lives of our friends, our neighbors and our family members. Sometimes He may ask us to interrupt our day long enough to join Him as He ministers to them. And there is nothing on our agendas, no matter how pressing, that's reason enough to ignore the voice of God when He tells us to "stop" and "help." If we have become too busy to care about others or listen to the voice of God as He guides us in helping them, then we need to get our priorities in order. Otherwise we will miss out on opportunities to serve our Father, as we should.
