Topic: Finding life
Proverbs 21:21 KJV
He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
Since the fall of man in the garden of eden, we've all been on the quest for life, to eat of the tree of life, to cancel the death we got through Sin.
Jesus came for this same purpose "John 10:10 KJV
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."
In as much as we desire life eternal we also desire things for this present life in our flesh. This is where the conflict comes many loose the assurance of life eternal because of things pertaining to life in the flesh.
Does God care about how you survive in your flesh?
How you get your clothes, food, shelter and other basic needs?
Yes God does.
Jesus in His teachings told us what we must do, "Matthew 6:32 - 33 KJV
(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."

If you choose to seek after God's kingdom and His righteousness, you're sure to get all other things including the life eternal.
Remember, Jesus is the life giver, his death and resurrection gave us life, we can't celebrate His birth without considering His life, death and resurrection, His birth is in vain.
Prayer:Father help me to seek your kingdom and your righteousness with my whole heart in Jesus' name.
Remain blessed
