Seek First...

Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts,   you double-minded. (James 4:7-8) 
Satan is cunning. If you are like me, struggling through the day to day to carry out God's calling, at times it gets frustrating. Seeing others prosper, watching family go through struggles but unable to help, not able to provide as needed, can lead to anger, frustration, sadness, times of depression and feeling like a failure. But God...

Turn to God. Cry out to Him as David did numerous times. Resist the lies of Satan and draw closer to the Lord. Stop judging life by the world's standards. What lies ahead in glory far outweighs today's struggles.

Our labor is not in vain! Seek first His  Kingdom. Fight the good fight. We cannot serve two masters!
