God's Kingdom

How many times have we recited [what is called] "The Lord's Prayer" without giving serious thought to its words!  When we pray "Thy kingdom come," is that truly our heart's deepest desire?  If we do not wish it to be, then we should not pray for it!  God's kingdom [of immense treasures] are not somehow mystically called down by mere words. More is required than just praying it, just saying the words.  God's Kingdom comes to those who pursue it: "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." (Matthew 6:33).  What things is Jesus referring to?  The things that trouble us, make us anxious, lure us into fanciful pursuits, things that draw us away from God.  God's kingdom - that for which we are to seek after - is one of established peace, immeasurable power and boundless love. Who wouldn't pray for these things!  May His kingdom be our desire and our pursuit so that His kingdom will be our greatest and most satisfying treasure!
