Be Careful How You Live

So many things can happen when you don't pay attention to details. Bank accounts can get overdrawn if you don't bother with the little detail of writing down what you spend. Pounds are gained when you don't watch what you put in your mouth. Cars break down when you fail to change the oil or maintain them properly. Small details...huge consequences!


Lately, I've been thinking about Ephesians 5:15-"be very careful how you live-not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of time..." (or making the most of every opportunity). As we're heading into a new year, I feel challenged to be careful of how I'm living. What should my priorities be? How should I spend my time? Where should I give my energy?


I found a great series from Nancy Leigh De Moss on Priorities that I've been meditating on.
