"Seek first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness..." Matthew 6:33
In Matthew chapter 6, verses 25-34 the Lord teaches us that we should not worry about our everyday needs. Can all our worrying add a single moment to our life? Of course not is His reply! If anything, it damages our health and disrupts our productivity, would you agree?
The Lord Jesus then goes on to declare that life is more than food, drink and clothes! That's because He wants us rather, to be concerned about ETERNITY!
He continues ... Your Heavenly Father dresses all those pretty flowers you see everyday and He feeds all the little birds too! We are worth far more than these to Him, so don't worry about your earthly needs, He can take care of these too!
Our life is very short, like a vapour James tells us in chapter 4, but ETERNITY is forever! That's what should be our #1 concern! Where will I spend ETERNITY?
We've all sinned (Romans 3:23) against God (Psalm 51:4), and we need to be reconciled to Him NOW, before it's too late! Seek God's forgiveness today!
Precious Pearls:
-"But Seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matthew 6:33
-"And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." Jeremiah 29:13
"Reconciled to God by the death of His Son!" (See Romans 5:10)
