A young man had been attending the gospel meetings and had found the Lord Jesus as his Saviour. He made a public confession of his faith in the Lord.
His father was greatly upset and said to him, “Jim, you should first have gotten yourself established in a good trade, and had a little money saved up; and then you would have time to think about religion.”
“Father,” said the boy, “the Bible tells me very differently. It says, ‘Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you’.” Matthew 6:3333But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (Matthew 6:33).
