"Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well"

"Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well." The kingdom of God represents the highest ideal to which a human being can aspire. When you place yourself in the service of this ideal, you attract all blessings.

Everything you may wish for, apart from the kingdom of God and his justice, in other words, apart from light, love, generosity and brotherhood, can only weigh you down, make you poorer and make your life more and more difficult. Perhaps after tasting certain pleasures or achieving personal success you will feel satisfied for a few moments, but you will soon tire of it, and you may even have to pay dearly for that moment of satisfaction. That is why these words of Jesus: 'Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well' are said to be the absolute quintessence of initiatic Science.

-Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov
