4 j- open forum anil all else into by don bernard life is a matter of having our priori ties i straight how we apportion our time is determined by our priorities each person has his or her own set of priorities and sets them in order for the most part the options open to me are the same ones open to you only the order is dif ferent i might feel that your order of priorities is way out of kilter because it does not agree with mine however there is some absolute authority on what our priorities should be the bible has quite a bit to say about priorities in the sermon on the mount jesus talks about this very subject in matthew 6 verse 33 he but how do we seek god k first of all we must give him first place in our lives and surrender our will to his will we must demonstrate this by giving him timedaily devotions and prayer and thirdly we must be obedient when he speaks all three steps require consicious decisions on our part seeking god is the great work of our lives with seeking god as a top priority other things will gradually fall into place and we will enjoy his order of priorities for our lives it sure beats wrestling with them on your own editors note this the tribune thursday june 24 176 i- 5 of bloomington bible school bloomington a two week bible school will beheld from july 19 to 30 at bloomington christian gospel church the program starts at 9 am each morning

to the late teens rev sorley described the school as a learning process without stress or strain it is a time when children and young people have a happy and pleasant time in a constructive way many are having what they think is a good time in a very undesirable way and this brings heartache and regret to themselves and to their parents the program will include bible stories music singing sports

concession and south of bloomington rd greenwood pastor retires after 18 years i says seek ye first the v is the first in the kingdom of god and his open forum space we righteousness and all these
