What are you going to chase?
God knows you need the basics. I don't think this means that we can ignore those and they'll magically appear, but I do believe God works to ensure our needs are met.
So if your needs are met, what are you seeking?
I'm not sure that we do a great job thinking about this question. We get up every day and get after it, busying ourselves with pursuing various tasks. But do we make time to think about what we're working towards, about what it is we want more than anything else?
God's Kingdom is promised to us -- a place of fullness, of fulfillment, of hope and joy. How do we set our hearts on that each morning, to let God fill us and let the Holy Spirit guide us? It's so very hard to make it through the day with that first in our hearts. There are so many distractions that will steal our attention and our energy.
Seek first the Kingdom. If we can do that, our lives become so much richer.
