The Lord said, “If you think about God first, you will see clearly. Keep your thoughts good, and focused on doing what God wants.”
You can’t want something, like a toy, or a new bike, so much that you’ll do anything to get it. God knows what you need.
He takes care of every creature, like the lilies of the field and the birds of the air.
He does not want you to think about what you need. He knows what you need. What he wants is for you to trust Him, and to walk with Him.
Seek, or look, first to find the kingdom of God. Stay close to God. Pray always. Do what is good and right at all times. One day, in heaven, you will have all that is good.
