Seek First

Matthew chapter 6 is one of the richest chapters in that Gospel, if not the entire New Testament. It’s a portion of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, and if you have a red-letter edition of the Bible, that entire chapter is printed in red.

In the final 11 verses of that chapter Jesus addresses the issues of worry and anxiety. The cure for these ailments, which seem so prevalent in our society, is simple, though maybe not exactly easy. Want to escape worry? Take your eyes off yourself and your situation and fix them on the things that matter to God.

I know, that is often easier said than done. But it makes perfect sense. This week I’ll be sharing these last verses from Matthew 6 during Mid Day Prayer Time, every week day around 10:30 AM and 2:30 PM. And we’ll be praying for God’s assistance in focusing on the things of His kingdom.

Mon 10/30               Matthew 6:24-25
Tue 10/31                Matthew 6:26-27
