This message confronts us with a profound truth: we are always being formed by something. Whether we realize it or not, our lives are being shaped by what we worship—money, power, beauty, efficiency, or the endless scroll of our phones. The call to 'seek first the kingdom of God' isn't about adding more religious activities to our already busy lives. Instead, it's an invitation to walk with Jesus in the midst of our ordinary, messy existence. Drawing from Matthew 4, 11, and 28, we see Jesus offering three simple yet transformative invitations: follow me, learn from me, and live with me. Discipleship isn't about becoming spiritual Navy SEALs who have mastered every Bible verse and spiritual discipline. It's about proximity—learning a way of life by staying close to Jesus, watching what He does, and moving with Him. The beautiful paradox is that Jesus doesn't demand we clean ourselves up first. He called fishermen while their nets were still in their hands. He runs to the prodigal son before any confession is made. The Christian life isn't about trying harder; it's about training better by allowing Jesus to rearrange what's already in our lives around His presence and love.
