Day 7 - February 13th 2022

Read Matthew 6:33

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Ever faced a situation that provoked worry, anxiety, or even panic? A job loss. A diagnosis. Unplanned, unexpected, and something you didn’t see coming. Our human nature responds to unforeseen circumstances with anxiety, fear, and worry. In those moments, how quickly do you turn to God? Do you run to Him first, or is He just an afterthought? Jesus encourages us to seek God before anything else. When you seek His kingdom, your focus shifts from your own earthly concerns to your relationship with Him. Seeking something is purposeful—you won’t find God’s peace unless you’re looking for it. Your heavenly Father already knows your every need and is not surprised by your circumstances. He is simply waiting for you to confide in Him and share your fears and anxieties.

Jesus, I want to seek You first. Remind me that You are in control even when fear tells me otherwise.
