BELOW IS A QUOTE FORM THE NEW TESTAMENT OF THE BIBLE FROM MATTHEW CHAPTER 6. IT STARTS WITH VERSE 19 THROUGH THE END OF THE CHAPTER.
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR PEACE AND HAPPINESS EVEN IN THE STRUGGLES OF
LIFE, THIS IS WHERE TO BEGIN:
MATTHEW 6:33—KEY VERSE 33: (THIS IS ONE OF THE FOUNDATIONAL WORDS FOR MY LIFE,— EMPHASIS ON VERSE 33 WHICH I HAVE IN UPPERCASE)
33BUT SEEK (AIM AT AND STRIVE AFTER) fFIRST OF ALL HIS KINGDOM AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS (GOD'S WAY OF BEING AND DOING RIGHT), AND ALL THESE THINGS TAKEN TOGETHER WILL BE GIVEN YOU BESIDES.
If you would like to see the full context of what Jesus is talking about here, just find the Book of Matthew in the New Testament, and read the whole of chapter 6, really checking out verses Matthew 19-34, with emphasis on Matthew 6:33.
Let me know if you want to discuss my reasons for placing my life in God's hands. Shalom
