Scripture: Luke 12:31
“But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.”
Reaction: I continued meditating on the theme 'Seek ye first the kingdom of God’ because I feel very drawn to this idea. My impression today was that before I serve as an example to others and experience the profound joy that comes from using my spiritual gifts, I must first take the time learn from others how to live a holy and spirit-filled life. Lynn, my fellow Vincentian, provided a wonderful illustration in her compassion and prayer over one of our clients earlier this week. I can use her, Sister Ellen, and others I encounter as role models. I am also trying to concentrate on becoming more aware, and living in the here and now. I will strive to be open and observant, seeking role models, wisdom, goodness and love wherever I go and in everything I do. No matter what activities I pursue, I feel they can be opportunities for me to receive and learn as well as to give and serve.
