Seek First To Promote God's Righteousness

"Look at the birds in the sky. They do not sow or reap, they gather nothing into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not more important than they?" (Matthew 6:28-30)

Look at how we treat GOD and worldly affairs separately. We have a separate time for Him and another for the "reality" of our daily concerns. Trying to serve two masters does not work. Look at how insecure we are. It's a sign that we consider barns of material security more real than GOD. But if we hold Jesus as THE treasure in our heart, we begin to look with His eyes. We begin sowing GOD's values into our corner of GOD's kingdom.

Seeking first to promote His righteousness over what we think we need, we learn to cut back and give back, to live simply so that others may simply live. Then shall we see GOD's amazing wisdom and power, arrange everything in place for us to reap our share of His bounty.
