Life and all the various components that comprise it come to us in uncatalogued. As we experience life and learn about the variety of distinctions unique to to everything, we naturally begin the process of ordering our lives, evaluating everything that we come into contact with and categorizing everything into a sort of value-based mental hierarchy of tastes, likes, dislikes, desires, passions, dreams, morals, ethics, et al.
There becomes, as it were, a prioritization within each one of us. We have these lists, for lack of a better word, in which our entire lives, our very existence, is placed into our perspective orders. To be sure, these lists are almost-surely informal and un-written, but they exist none the less.
The question I pose is this:
What's at the top of your life list? What is the most important thing?
Quite plainly, nothing compares to the surpassing greatness of knowing God through Jesus Christ. Nothing.
