By the time I got to college my friends and I were wondering if we…

33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. You hear the Kingdom of God or the Kingdom of Heaven talked about. Do you know what it is?

Intro: Good Morning, I again want to remind us that today there are so many different messages the world wants you to hear. We know that God is not the author of confusion.
