Matthew 6:33 - Put Jesus First and All These Things Will Be Added.

Matthew 6:33 (NKJV) But seek first the 
kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these 
things shall be added to you. 

Matthew 6:33 (NLT) Seek the Kingdom of God 
above all else, and live righteously, and he will 
give you everything you need. 

COMMENTARY PEARL

   When I was a young mother, there was 
always too much to do and too little time in which 
to do it. Between working, cleaning the house, 
running errands, cooking, doing the laundry, taking 
the children to their activities, and shopping, 
as well as being a wife and mother, I was 
always busy. I just didnt have much time for 
Jesus. I felt like a gerbil running inside a wheel, 
constantly running but never going anywhere. I was 
overwhelmed and frustrated. On Sundays, I was either too 
tired or too busy to go to church.  
   But as much as I loved my family, 
friends, and hectic life, I knew there was something 
missing. One night, feeling tired and empty, I 
reached out to Jesus. I knew that He needed to be a 
priority. It was time to make changes in my life. Dear 
Jesus, I will put you first. Please give me peace. 
I cant do this without you, I prayed. The 
next morning, I began the day with a prayer. I 
listened to worship music on the radio. I realized 
that Jesus wouldnt mind if I was washing 
dishes, cleaning the house, or driving while I 
prayed. He just wanted me to talk to Him. I began 
reading my Bible and devotionals more. We quit 
skipping church. My schedule was still busy. I had a 
lot of responsibilities, but Jesus was by my 
side.  
   Busyness can get in the way of spending 
time with Jesus. He longs for a relationship with 
us. He wants to lead us, guide us, and flood our 
lives with His grace and mercy. That only happens 
when we are in His presence, soaking up His love.

presence today. Make Him your priority. [Mornings
