What distracts you from seeking God? Sometimes I let the cares of this world, money, or other desires distract me from remembering my blessings. I’m always being tempted in some way. 

For the next few days, I want to look at some of the things that tend to distract us from seeking God first in our lives. The Bible encourages us to “Seek the Kingdom of God above all else …” (Matt. 6:33). 

Matthew 6 gives us some great examples of how we tend to get distracted by things, like food or clothing, money or lack of money, friends or lack of friends, and difficult circumstances.

As I identify with all of these issues during the next few day in my blog posts, I hope you will think about your own life to see if you can relate. This study has helped me to examine why I continue to struggle with worry and stress in certain areas of my life.

So, tomorrow, I will examine the area of food. I hope you will join me.
