My "Box" is Overflowing

So the two big questions at church this weekend were "what do you want out of life?" and "what is in your box?" We all know that Jesus is supposed to be in our box. But is he really? I guess my personal answer to this is no. Sometimes I try to cram Him into my box with all my other junk but hehas been the dominant figure lately. I have ALOT of stuff going on in my life. School fulltime, Working almost fulltime, getting the girls small group back on track, and trying maintain all my realtionship between friends and family. After that I try to cram God into the box. God's pretty big and it seems to me that all that other stuff gets in the way. Knowing that God cant fit in with all my other stuff I guess the big question is ... What do I do? ....How do I put God in my box? I think for me it starts with a big thing called Time Management....sometimes I waste time and am not organized. Im also a big sucker to "hang out" when I have other stuff to do. These question were definately a big wake up call....I need to get my priorities in order.
Also two other questions that are very good to chew on are:
Whose yoke are you wearing?
Where do I need Jesus to teach me how to live?
