The bible says that we cannot add a day to our lives by worrying as a matter of fact worry can cause ulcers, high blood pressure and all kinds of ailments that can detract from your life. God takes care of the birds and he will take care of you also. We as humans are more valuable than the birds. The words of Christ tells us not to worry about clothes. He compares it with the lilies of the field, they do not labor yet they are beautiful to look upon. The word of God tells us that even though Solomon was a splendid dress, that he couldn’t compare with the lilies. The bible also stresses that we need to have faith. And we all know what faith is. Or at least we should and just in case you don’t Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hope for and the evidence of things unseen. We must seek God first. The believer’s life is not to be preoccupied with material things, as necessary as some things are. The believer’s life is first of all to be seeking after the kingdom of God and His righteousness. We are to look to God first an all our needs will be provided for. The reason we have so many worries is because we’re seeking everything but God first. We are too concerned about what does the bank account say, what does the doctor say, what does the horoscope say, what does the boss say. We need to be concerned about what God wants us to do and be and then, and only then, can we have the right perspective on our lives. This means time for prayer and reading the word. We will put God first in every week, attending the house of God faithfully. It means sincerely desiring to grow in the Lord by making spiritual investments in our lives. We need to put God first. We need to put God first in our choices, making no decisions that would leave God out. Seek ye first his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well. When we put God first, he will see to it that all our needs are met. We need to develop a perspective on eternity.
