Priorities

Keep first things first and seconds will happen. Do second thing first and first never happens. 
What are the priorities of your life? Do you treat them as such? or do they get pushed to the back burner on the "I'll get it list" of tomorrow? How would each day be different if we were to do the most important things first. The rest would still happen. I have found that when I put off my priorities and fill my time with all the other stuff, that I end up never getting to the things that were most important, and I end up feeling less than satisfied with my day. 
What are those things that matter most to you? For me it's quiet reflective time with the Lord, my husband, relationships, and then work...in that order. I can say first hand that it doesn't just happen that way, I have to organize my life to reflect what I care about most, and some days it can be a struggle. It seems that the urgent threaten to push out the important. However, When I keep first things first, second, third and fourth always happen.
