Dr. Youssef Asks You: “What is your priority in life?”

Jesus’ priority was crystal clear. He set His face like a flint toward Jerusalem, toward the cross. His priority was the saving of souls for eternity. While Jesus’ disciples were thinking about food, Jesus was concerned with the ripe spiritual harvest (see John 4:27-35). When the disciples were overjoyed that they had power to cast out demons, Jesus encouraged them to instead rejoice in their salvation (see Luke 10:17-20).

Jesus was fully focused on the priority His Father had given Him. So ask yourself, "What is my priority in life?" Don’t rest until you get the answer. Then, the next question naturally follows: "Am I focusing on it like a laser beam, or am I getting distracted by extraneous things?"
