Chunks of Scripture

Good morning!  Sometimes I really can't eat the whole enchilada so I go for the part with the most chicken, chile, and cheese.  It's the same way with the Scripture I'm pondering.  My chunk of Matthew 6: 33-34 that I'm really chewing on is "Steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative, and God-provisions. "  What do you think of when you think of steep when it's a verb?  I think of tea, thanks to Diana's living in the UK and her husband who makes a crackin' cup of tea. Webster's adds the ideas of immerse, saturate, or imbued with. We so want the instant God-reality in our lives when He calls us to the steeped.  You will recognize the more common version of the passage: "But seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness..."
Steep your life in God -reality, God - initiative, and God - provisions today!

Blessings on your comings and goings,
