Each of us is prone to seek satisfaction in someone or something other than God. As we consider priorities, we are wise to identify and to keep an eye on our idolatries, knowing that we will be prone to take on not the tasks that glorify God, but the tasks that validate us. Sinful men and women that we are, we may subtly assume that our top priorities should be those tasks that make us feel good about ourselves instead of actually doing good for others.
