Worry is a major problem for the world because they love the world and the things of the world, but it's also a problem for a Christian, who still lives in their sinful flesh. In this passage, we are commanded not to worry about the temporal, but rather to seek first His kingdom! We learn that the Greek word for worry (Merimnao) means to be anxious, to be troubled with cares, to seek to promote one's interests, and to be preoccupied with something. Doug shows us that that same Greek word shows up in 1 Corinthians 7 when it's telling us that marriage divides our interests and binds us to be concerned with the temporal. Doug warns us of the dangers of making even the good things, like marriage and children, our main desire and preoccupation, and teaches us the importance of seeking His kingdom first!
