Good morning!
From the time we are small children there are certain things that are drilled into our minds as being important. Meals or food. We eat several times a day. Huge buildings are dedicated to selling food; eating places and advertisements are everywhere. Clothing is seen as a status symbol more than a covering. We talk about it, even to small children. These are things that we consider important and they are important in our lives.
“Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matt 6:31-33
For the past several weeks this passage has continually been on my mind. It is as if the Lord is speaking to me and saying, “When you seek my Kingdom, that which is important to me, first I will take care of those things which are important in your life.” It makes me wonder if I have my priorities right? Am I seeking those things that are eternal, first?
Just a thought! God Bless…
