In this passage, Jesus commands his disciples to not be anxious or worried about whether or not the they will have the basic provisions of life. In contrast to the wealthy man who built up a temporary treasure but was left eternally impoverished, the follower of Jesus is free to make the Kingdom of God their priority, knowing that God, the good father, will provide all their needs. In the end, the one of seeks first the Kingdom of God will have an eternal treasure because they set their heart on the things of God’s Kingdom rather than self-centered pursuits.
