Lord, help me to make sure that I spend the right amount of time on the things that are the most important, and to spend less time on the things that aren't. First of all, help me to always keep You as my top priority, which everything else in my life follows. I don't just want You to be first in my life; I want You to be first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and so on. I want everything in my life to just be a result of my relationship with You.

Lord, help me to keep my family as a top priority. Help me to not forget what You have given me in a family. Help me to keep my schoolwork as a priority. I know that You want me to be diligent in everything and make sure that I get done what needs to be done. Help me to also keep my friends as a priority. Let me not forget the importance of other people in my life.

Give me wisdom on what to spend my time on. Help me to find the right balance and to know what activities to keep and what activities to throw out.
