What are you seeking in life, dear Christian? What are your desires? Riches, fame, so-called security, pleasure? If so, remember that “the fashion of this world passeth away,” and that “all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: but the word of the Lord endureth forever.” Our Lord Jesus said to “take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.” “Things” do not satisfy, but the Lord does. “Wherefore do ye spend … labor for that which satisfieth not?” But “He satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.” So “rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.” The person who puts the Lord first in his life and walks in obedience to His Word does not have to worry about “things,” “for Thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek Thee,” and “they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.” Love “seeketh not her own.” So “seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought His judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness,” for “they shall praise the Lord that seek Him.”
What are you seeking, dear friend,
For pleasure, for ease, for things?
Or do you “seek those things … above,”
Which satisfaction do bring?
