Decisions, decisions

This week's gospel reading follows on from last week's where Jesus tells a parable about a rich fool who saw his life only in terms of his possessions. He then turns to his disciples and tells them they are not to worry about what they will eat and drink. Their focus is to be on seeking God's kingdom, which they are to receive (Luke 12:32). They are to live their lives, to make their decisions, based on God's kingdom and not based on the needs of this life. God is aware of what we need and is able to provide more adequately for us than we can ourselves. But more than this, we are called to live in his service, ready for when he returns because our hope is in "...a better country, that is, a heavenly one" (Heb 11:16) of which we are citizens now. Are we making our decisions based on this or on other concerns? Glen
