Important Over Urgent

 “Important OVER Urgent”

Luke 7:38-50 ; Luke 10:38-42
Ever just feel stressed to get everything done? Who really has enough time in the day to get everything they set out to do done? Scrolling through your insta feed…do you ever think How do they get it all done? They are like a super hero!

  1. Choose Between the IMPORTANT and the URGENT
    • Luke 7:38-50
      • Important
        • Laying everything at Jesus’ feet! Not just saying we were in the same room with Jesus…but instead having an encounter with Him!
      • Urgent
        • The cost of the oil! Making an appearance with Jesus…not having an encounter! Comparing the sacrifice of others to ours!
    • Luke 10:38-42
      • Important
        • Resting in Jesus at His Feet and spending time with him regardless of how messed up our life is
      • Urgent
        • Getting everything ready to look like we have it together before we spend time with Jesus! Have the cleaned up life…then we go to Jesus! Feeling Overwhelmed because we are operating in our own Strength!
    • What if the reason we are so stressed is because we are constantly pursuing the urgent over the important? The important takes intentionality…the urgent comes like a wave!

Founder and Lead Pastor of thevine.tv Realtor® with The Ott Group at Ponce Realty Group LLC (www.theponcerealtygroup.com) Theodore Roosevelt describes in “The Arena” a man who boldly stepped out of the seats & into the Arena! The Arena I get to fight in is to help others live an abundant life by finding the gifts that God has given them and helping them take their next step by fulfilling the calling God has on their lives! Growing up in a widowed home from the age of 2, I experienced the dependence of faith, the importance of family, the foundation of integrity, the value of loyalty and the success that can be achieved through hard work. Whether expanding Walgreens from 4000 to 8000 healthcare stores, or stepping out in faith to be a part of launching a NewSpring Church Campus--faith, family, integrity, loyalty and hard work are fingerprints of me being involved! Each experience I have stepped into has allowed me to develop invaluable relationships that have not only achieved remarkable results, but more importantly made an impact on the lives of others that will last beyond this lifetime...a cause worthy to fight for! Can't wait to see how Jesus continues to #JoinSpartanburg at #thevinetv and the Local Church Around the World!
