Jesus taught us to ‘seek first the Kingdom,’ not material things. How can we avoid the snare of materialism and simplify our life so that we can pursue more important spiritual interests? Consider Jesus’ encouraging words in the portion of his Sermon on the Mount found at Matthew 6:25-34.

(Matt. 24:42) To do that, we need to guard against negative influences that could cause us not to be alert and vigilant with respect to Jesus’ coming. This article explains how we can avoid being distracted from our watchfulness.
