Seek First the Kingdom

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 18th of November, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We go to the Gospel of John 6:27:

“Do not labour (do not work) for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life,…”  

This is Jesus speaking. Then we go back to the Old Testament, to the Book of Ecclesiastes 1:14. They say it was written by Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived. He says it is “grasping for the wind” 

Are you grasping for the wind today? Are you on the wrong track? Are you spending all your time, all your effort,  in building up things which will perish, maybe even before you die, and have no everlasting benefit to anyone or anything? We need to be like Jesus and get our priorities in order. Mark 8:36, the word of God says:

“For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?”  

I want to say to you today, be careful that you’re not putting all your effort into something that has no eternal value. Yes, we have to put food on the table for our families, we have to be responsible citizens, but we have to seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and then all these other things will be added to us.

Today please, listen to what the Lord is saying to us. Stop chasing after the wind and start seeking Jesus Christ, and He will undertake for you in every area of your lives. 

Jesus bless you and goodbye.
