This morning I was reading in the book of Mark and came across an interesting thought. I was reading in the Maxwell Leadership Bible and John Maxwell makes an interesting point in that Jesus didn't let others dictate His agenda. Many times throughout Jesus' ministry He left the "demands of His work to come apart and pray. He used this solitude to regain perspective and once more see the big picture." Jesus didn't set priorities based on fame or fortune, but rather his priorities came from His heavenly Father. In times when we may question what our role is in life or what direction we should be heading, we need to ask ourselves, where do our priorities come from? Do we take time daily to pray and look for guidance? Don't let others dictate your agenda; let us do as Jesus did and take time every day to escape the rigors of daily life and seek Him in prayer for guidance. Make it a priority.
Just another thought to consider.
