But strive first for the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all
these things
will be given to you as well.
There are some of us whose greatest need right now is to spend some time kneeling or
sitting at
the feet of Jesus. Our lives are out of kilter. Our values are out of focus. We need to
stop where
we are and to pray, "Lord, help me to know what those thing are that really need to
matter in my
life and help me always to put you first."
(Matthew 6:33
NRSV)
In a Scandinavian country there is a statue of Christ. A tourist standing in front of it
appeared
dismayed. A local resident asked what his problem was. He replied, "I cannot see His
face." The
resident then explained, "If you desire to see His face, you must kneel at His feet."
God of peace, may I always put you first, as I unconditionally love your people. Amen.
