The topic of our ecumenical Bible study on Wednesday was on the topic of making choices on what to do with our daily lives. Our leader used a writing by Mary Sutherland. She was a volunteer extraordinary. Picking everything! But it landed her into clinical depression.
Lots of things are good but we can't choose them all.
Choose GREAT over GOOD!
We were given a graphic to enhance our thinking:
"People before things;
People before projects;
Family before friends;
Spouse before children;*
Spouse before parents;*
Tithe before wants;
Bible before opinions;
Jesus before all."
