Putting first things first

Yesterday in FCA we had small groups. I took charge of my group of Dakwan, Michael, Chris, and Brandon. The topic of the small group time was about priorites, there was some good feedback from the guys and i know i stressed the imortance of our relationship with God. As I was listening to the Holy Spirit he gave me some other questions to ask along with the initial discussion question. I also remembered a PD quote:"If you don't put first things first and do secondary things then you won't get either of the tasks done." At the end of our time I encouraged my guys to really remain focused in what their priorities are, which as a group our priorities are:
                                                 1. Relationship with God
                                                 2. School
                                                 3. Family/friends (relationships)
I encouraged my guys to not be distracted but to lay aside the distractions and focus on running the race to get the prize.
