Life Verse

Many Christians have a verse, or a few verses, they consider a "life verse". A "life verse" is a verse that God has spoken strongly to their heart that has become a recurring theme. For me that verse is Matthew 6:33. "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."

We all need to seek Him first every day. It's easy to get caught up in so many other things besides the Lord Himself. Even legitimate concerns (financial needs, relationships, jobs, etc.) are valid. We just don't need to worry about them. There is often a fine line between worrying and putting necessary thought and planning into our lives. I think that we need to strive to let the Lord guide and lead our thoughts and plans regarding all of these things.
