No Matter What, Seek God First.

September 25, 2024 - By Lana

I don’t know about you, but I feel like our world feels so uncertain most days.

And I think we tend to watch things happening around us [namely, too many media reports of only negative things..] and because it feels like so many things are rapidly changing or unsteady, we worry about our future. We worry about our kids and their future. We worry about the present.

Constant stress and concern disrupts our peace; the peace that God intended for us to have.

So, in our chaotic world, we HAVE to seek Him first if we ever expect find, or restore, the true peace that we are after. God wants us to have peace and not worry about tomorrow. But to get there, we must put our priorities in line, starting with G O D.

He tells us, in Matthew Chapter 6, that He knows our needs, and if we pray to Him and seek Him and His Kingdom FIRST, that He will provide for those needs.

So, instead of letting the worry get the best of you today, try taking a moment to stop, take a few deep breaths, and pray, earnestly, that God will provide peace for your mind and heart today. Ask Him to open your eyes, ears, and heart to what He wants you to see and hear and even speak to others. Tell Him that you KNOW He is taking care of all of your doubts and worries, and THANK HIM for all of the needs He has already met for you and your family and for those He will continue to provide.
