King Me
Posted in Religion & Spirituality: Christianity by joeprainito on December 3rd, 2008 Do you remember when we were kids, dreaming about what our life would become? We dreamt about the home that we would reside in, the spouse that we would marry, and the career’s that would occupy each day of our lives until retirement. Yes we dreamt about our own kingdom which sat on our own land, where anything was possible, and why not, we would be the King; the Lord of our own palace, in charge of our own destiny.
When we were young these childlike dreams were innocent, cute even, but as we’ve gotten older it seems that many of us have continued with the same mindset; lording over our lives, reigning in our own Kingdoms, chasing and pursuing the riches and wealth of the world. But let’s be honest, it’s easy to do; we all want to be successful and prosperous, we all want to lead healthy and happy lives. But let me ask you, is it possible that while we’ve been eagerly building a temporary Kingdom of our own on earth, we’ve been willingly neglecting the eternal Kingdom of God.
Matthew 6:33 seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
Yet still we live like we’re a checker on a Checker board desperately wanting to be crowned wo that we can move about this life as we please.
I encourage you, takeoff the crown that you’ve placed on your own head, and allow the King of Kings to Lord your life. Seek to please him, and all these things will be added to your life from His Kingdom, and you’ll see that, these good things that the Lord wants to give you, are indeed from a kingdom that is out of this world.
