God's Love

 

"But rather seek ye the kingdom of God;
and all these things shall be added unto you."
Luke 12:31
 
Seek God First
    Our society today is inundated with many reasons why "being first" is a goal to be obtained. There is nothing wrong with obtaining first place status. As a matter of fact, the Bible encourages us to set high goals and reach for them with perseverance. But what about those who do their very best and never make the first touchdown, never get the top grade in class, never win a trophy or a race? What do they do with God's promises?
 
    God has a plan for each and every one of us. The stakes are sometimes high, and the game plan will be interrupted countless times by the devil. We will become doubtful, discouraged, and face what seem to be impossibilities. However, God promises us that if we seek Him first, we have all we need ~ all of His blessings and all of his promises. It only takes the faith of a mustard seed!
 
    Some of us may never make it to the finish line, yet our labor is rewarded because we did our very best. And, in closing, each of us can place first if we simply believe and stand on the promises of God and become dead to doubt, dumb to discouragement, and blind to impossibilities.
 
    "WHEREFORE seeing we also are compassed about with so great cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith . . . "
 
If anyone pushes you nearer to God,
they are your dearest friend.
