Jesus' command to seek first his Kingdom and righteousness is well known. But what does this really mean when things in life are not going as we might have planned? When our futures are uncertain, or our health is at risk, or our relationships are strained, trusting first in God's kingdom can feel counter-intuitive. It takes faith to choose to believe and act on Jesus' promises when our human instincts are driving us to take back control. But the more able, the more we see that Jesus knows what he is doing. He is faithful and good. He does look after his children in extraordinary ways.
