Whether we are seeking spiritual Peace, mental achievements, emotional happiness, physical health, or material possessions, if we keep our eye fixed on our objective, and persist in our efforts, we shall get what we have set out to attain. The pity is that we so often go after the wrong things.

There is nothing this world has to offer that an all-loving Creator would either deny us or withhold from us, but just as a wise mother would not feed her child chiefly on cake, so does an omniscient Father not wish us to pursue the baubles of life before we have found the Substance of that which is good. "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness," said the Master, "and all these things shall be added unto you."

To "seek" God is to attune ourselves to Him, and as He is LOVE we can do this only by filling our minds and emotions with this quality and by giving of it, first to Him (from Whom It derives) and after Him to all our fellows.
