I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Sunday morning, the 17th of May, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We start in the Book of Psalms - Psalm 34:10:

”…But those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.”

Then the other scripture. Matthew 6:33:

”But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” 

I want to ask you a question this morning. Are you satisfied with where you are at in your life at the moment? I can hear somebody say, ”No, I’m not. I’m still seeking and I don’t even know what I’m looking for but I’m not happy with where I am at right now.” Well, I have got good news for you! The Lord says, ”Seek me first and my righteousness and then all these other things that you are seeking, you will receive.”

As a young man, my one desire was to be a farmer. I wanted to be a farmer. My dad was a blacksmith. Oh yes, a blue collar worker and what a hard-working man he was. I never had an opportunity to even get a job on a farm, but you know something, I got that farm and I got another one after that, and another one after that, and didn’t find any peace and fulfilment. I was looking in the wrong place. Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.  I’ve met many men, very successful, in business, in sport, in careers, and every one of them have told me. ”It was only when I met the man from Galilee that I was totally fulfilled.” It’s as the Psalmist says, ”Those who seek the Lord shall lack no good thing.” 

So maybe it’s your career today. You need to say, ”Lord, I have enjoyed my work but there is something missing.” I’ll tell you what it is, it’s fellowship with God. You see, the Lord created you and me for Himself so that He could have fellowship with us. That’s why He created us. He doesn’t need us, He wants us because He loves us! He doesn’t need anybody. He can do whatever He wants at any time but He really desires that we have fellowship with Him. The purpose of man is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. Now today, start to enjoy the Lord and that career that ambition will come automatically.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day. 
Goodbye.
