“Those who try to make their life secure will lose it, but those who lose their life will keep it.”
is like: cannot serve two masters.
is like: seek first the Realm of God and Righteousness, and all this will be added
Keeping my eyes on the prize:
Spiritual Reality, Perspective, Truth... in which I am invited to rest as Spiritually-Certain
not, physical reality, perspective, truth... human certainty - sometimes serving in everyday things, but myopic about spiritual things.
In this way, I am blessed to live with-in and live flowing-out: Sacred Life, Provision, Fulfillment
and my (physical focus) cart can follow the (spiritual focus) horse, fruiting according to Providence: everyday life, provision, fulfillment.
I noticed some of these things deeper while reading this post:
