Psalm 73 illustrates how we can sometimes struggle when we look at other people and what they seem to have. We must have a strong relationship with God to put all these things into perspective.

Why do you live and practice the Church's beliefs? The depth of our faith will be tried. And although Peter says this is "more precious than gold", as Christians, we need to be sure our spiritual foundations and belief are based on deep convictions.

As Christians, we need to prioritize seeking the Kingdom of God in our lives. We cannot let the cares of this world cause us to miss out on the greater joy of God’s reward.

What is required for us to be rulers in the Kingdom of God? What should we be focused on learning today to prepare for that future? When Christ returns, the dead will be resurrected, the rebellious will be destroyed, and we will be commissioned to teach a new way to live.

Jesus Christ provided the Church with a spiritual deleavening list. Let’s reflect on this list as we prepare for the Days of Unleavened Bread.
