Seek First the Kingdom

Verse: Matthew 6:33

“Steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative, God-provisions. Don’t worry about missing out. You’ll find all your everyday human concerns will be met.”

Reflection

Jesus invites us to center every part of our lives on God’s kingdom, trusting that His priorities are greater than our own. When we immerse ourselves in God’s presence, His wisdom begins to shape our decisions, attitudes, and desires. Worry loses its grip when we remember that the One who created us also faithfully provides for us. Rather than chasing after what the world says we need, we are called to seek the things that have eternal value.
