Our priorities are revealed through how we spend our time and energy, not through what we claim is important. The way we allocate our resources reveals what truly matters to us, especially in our relationship with God and our spouses.

• Making time for God through prayer and reading scripture should be our top priority
• Biblical guidance calls husbands to love sacrificially and wives to respect and honor
• We often create our own problems by placing other activities ahead of these foundational relationships
• Ephesians 4 challenges believers to be renewed in thoughts and attitudes
• Psalm 69 offers comfort to those feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges
• Staff Sergeant David Bellavia's Medal of Honor story demonstrates extraordinary courage and sacrifice
• Simon Greenleaf, former Harvard Law professor, became convinced of the Bible's authenticity through careful study

Check out my book series "Countryside" on Amazon, written primarily for middle school readers but enjoyed by all ages. If you read it and enjoy it, please consider leaving a review online.
