Good or Right ?
This is the question of priority. I'm sure what consume our precious time is not bad things rather good things.
Something that's good& something that's right aren't always the same .Discerning the difference is what make a difference among peoples.
It's Devil's trick to getting us to say yes to too many good things. So we don't have room for right thing and we end up spread up being average(so thin) that we r mediocre in everything and excellent for nothing."Jack of all trade, master of none." Unknown
To overcome these challenge keep telling your self you " i have limited time and I'm not born to do everything". I think apostle Paul understand these thing very well ,he said ❝For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: .❞
—1 Corinthians 1: 17 (KJV)
Deep down we human being wanna to do everything. I love Jesus said the right thing ( not good thing ). Because he was a man of priority. See Gospel of John 7:6 ..❝Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is always ready. ❞
Jesus responded in unexpected way ....❝But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.❞
—Matthew 15: 26 (KJV)
Why we prioritize things ?
1.Because we never find them again in our life. John 12:7-8 " Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always."
2. Because they r more valuable to us!The old saying is very true "There is one guaranteed formula for failure, and that is to try to please everyone." The more we grow the more opportunity we will have to say no.
Nothing bring focus like the word no!
I love the word "No "because it break the yoke of over commitment . Some body said " Never allow ur mouth to overload ur back". When i understand these it sets me free. Oh No is anointed word that Deliver Joseph from the Wife of photifara.
But never confuse no with never. No may mean no right now. When u say manner is important. Say "No" politely coz manner is everything. So as not to spoil your relationship with others.
So when u say "yes" or "no" u got to be so careful. Since they determine your destiny. How and when u say them will affect your entire future.
Saying no to lesser means saying yes to priorities in Your life.
