Essay #1
In both our personal and professional lives, we should be aware that what thing is more
important and is supposed to be done firstly. So In this essay I am going to talk about what
bible says about prioritizing and organizing both our personal and professional lives.
In I Samuel 13: 8-14, Saul was afraid that his people would leave him, so he forced
himself to offer the burnt offering to pacify his people. What he had done was disobey the
commandment of the Lord, therefore his kingdom shall not continue. In Saul’s case, he
was unconfident about his faith, also he didn’t put the commandment of Lord in first order.
Also Bible taught us through Saul’s experience, not matter what happened, we should
always put His rule in the first position. Also in professional life, we should be more aware
of what is the most important thing.
Another scripture from Proverbs 4:23, it says that keep thy heart with all diligence; for out
of it are the issues of life. God taught us by this scripture that we should always keep our
heart with all diligence, so that we can keep it organized and never let Satan has any
chance to break into our heart. On the other hand, keeping organized can help us to
concentrate on work and minimize mistakes which made by careless.
