Priorities

Men, in today's society we have a lot on our plate. It's a huge problem when we do not have the right things on that plate. The world has caused us to be consumed with things that take up time and effort that should be guided elsewhere. Money. Don't get me wrong here, we have to earn a living. That's just it, earn a living. There's nothing in the Bible that states we should earn an abundance of riches. In fact, the Bible tells us to give it away. Give to the needy, the poor, put back into the church. But we are stuck with this idea that we need more and more money. Whether it's to customize a car, fix a man cave, or to get tickets to a ball game, if it misaligns the priorities, it needs to be rearranged. Things cost more and more just to live, so please be careful to not put work before your wife. Quality time with your wife is priceless compared to a day at work. Trust me, she will appreciate it, too. Another thing that many men do not realize is the choices they make for friendships. Now, this may seem silly at first, but there really isn't any business for a man to have a female companion other than his wife. This is a dangerous red flag. May not seem so at first, but it could always lead to a temptation that can be devastating to your marriage. It may start with friendly talk, or a small moment of confiding in her after a dispute with your wife, and could lead to far worse. Leave the female friendships to your wife. And time....what do we spend our time doing? Are we reading our favorite car mag while our wife is striving for attention? Are we scrolling our fb while our wife impatiently waits for a conversation? Our time is so constricted already, we do not need to deprive our wives further. The only thing that should take precedence in this category is spending time with God; studying and praying. But even too much of that could be hazardous to your marriage. Our wife is our tender gift from God. He wants us to cherish her and take care of her every need. So let's get our heads right and straighten out our priorities. GOD, WIFE, KIDS..... everything else falls into place after these. The best love triangle in the world is that of God, husband, and wife. He created it, so to strive, He must be involved in it.
