3 1.Choose Wisely Do not store up for yourselves
treasures on earth...but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Verses 19-21

4 2.Choices have Consequences
The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. Verses 22-23

5 3.One Choice that we must make
No-one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other... You cannot serve both God and Money. Verse 24

6 Seek first the kingdom of God & his righteousness

7 Song: seek ye first.....

8 Seek First the Kingdom of God
Matthew

9 The Alternative?

10 Seek first the kingdom of ME & my wants

11 ME first = a life of worry
So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' 'What shall we drink?' 'What shall we wear?'  For the pagans run after all these things Verse 31-32

12 What shall I wear?

13 What shall I eat?

14 Seek first the kingdom of God & his righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well

15 Can we Trust our Father God?
Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink...Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.Are you not much more valuable than they? Verses 25-26

16 Can we Trust our Father God?
See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labour or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendour was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Verses 25-26

17 ME first = a life of worry
GOD first = a life free from needless worry Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own Verse 34
