[Manna - October 30]
No man can serve two masters. Matthew 6:24
"YE cannot serve God and Mammon."
Experience
and observation corroborate this; and hence as a rule
we find that people are either cold or hot in spiritual
things...We are to "seek first (chiefly) the Kingdom
of God."
It is to be our chief concern and to receive
from us all the time, attention, thought, energy,
influence and means we have—the things needful for
the present life being understood to be excepted; and
our love and zeal will be manifested by the proportion
of even these which we are willing to sacrifice in the
interest of heavenly things. Z. '01-61 R2765:5
