Are You Seeking God First or Are You Being Moved By The Distractions Of Life

What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and to lose his soul?   This leads to the question, “what are you seeking”?   Are you seeking the things of the world are you seeking God?   It’s just that simple.   We have to understand, only seeking God leads to life everlasting.   Where people get confused is when they start to seek the things in this world instead of seeking the God who created this world.   They don’t seek the giver, instead they seek the gifts.   

God has already told us to seek Him first.   He said to seek Him while He may be found.   He said that to remind us that everything else comes when we seek Him first. 

It’s time to stop being moved by the distractions of life.   We can’t be moved by the new house or the fancy car.   We can’t be moved by how much money is in our bank account.   These things are nice things but they tend to redirect our attention.    Many people stop looking to God because they are looking at stuff.   Don’t let that be you.   Keep your eyes stayed on God and He will cause His blessings to chase after you instead of you chasing after them.
