"But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." (Matthew 6:33)
What, "things"?-- All of the aforementioned in the sermon on the mount, which E. Stanley Jones refers to as, "The Christ of the Mount," and, I add that the, "all things," are everything promised, declared and offered in the Bible, as well as much of everything which were mentioned as "promises" in the Charismatic Renewal. All are ours ONLY when we, "Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness."
Again, I recommended the great book by E. Stanley Jones, The Unshakable Kingdom and the Unchanging Person. The Kingdom of God/Heaven is one of the most neglected "topics" of the entirety of Scriptures. The Church through the centuries has paid the price for this neglect, this includes, of course, you and me. You can get the book in paperback on Amazon. I just noticed that there are five new and 7 used available now.
Father, in Jesus' Name, again and again I pray, Teach me of You and Your Kingdom. Amen.

* We are still in need of backpacks for the Crow People. We are once again taking a van. The easiest way is to contribute the funds, then we will purchase the backpacks. We can get the packs for $4.00 each. We have five hundred committed so far.
* We will be sending the remaining funds for Ukrainian Refugees when we get back to Greensburg. There is still great need.
When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
