Being Open to Possibility and Purpose
‘But seek first God’s kingdom and his righteousness,
and all these things will be given to you as well’
(Matthew 6:33)
Jesus has just made a contrast between the unbelievers of this world and his disciples.
The aim of the unbelievers is to seek the things of this life, beginning with clothes, food and drink.
Jesus knows that we need such things. But he wants us to put God’s kingdom first.
God’s kingdom is his reign, his rule. Our first duty as human beings is to enter the kingdom,
by submitting to the rule of God through repentance and faith.
The aim of our life is then to just him and to please him.
The contrast with the aims of this world is striking.
We are surrounded by people who have this-worldly goals, aims which can only disappoint.
God’s kingdom gives true hope.
Question for thought: What do I want for my children and grandchildren?
Loving Lord, we pray for the Diocese of St Mark the Evangelist in Southern Africa.
As many families continue to face significant challenges, including poverty, HIV/AIDS, unemployment,
crime, and domestic violence may members be strengthened by the prayer and fellowship they share.
Help them to encourage others to have faith in you. Amen.
