But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be added to you.

- Matthew 6:33

What is on your mind today? Is there something weighing heavily on your heart?

Whatever it is, God wants you to know you are not alone. Turn to Him first and ask Him for His direction. Ask Him for His help. You can trust Him. He wants your whole heart. He wants your trust.

When we allow worry to consume our thoughts we only hurt ourselves. We become ineffective because we cease to trust Him.

Instead, we are trusting in ourselves and our strength. To truly seek first the kingdom of God, we must seek to obey God in everything.

What things are competing for your attention today? Is it a person? Or maybe, it’s a goal, a hobby, or a job.

Many things vie for our time each day. But Jesus wants our hearts. He desires time with us. Embrace Him today. Bring Him into your pain, your daily tasks, your joys, your highs, and lows.

Ask Him to help you seek Him first. You will be so glad you did.

With Love,
