Seek Them Not

Thinking tonight on what I heard L. Clark say at a recent talk. That every day we must submit two things to the Lord.

1.) my will
2.) my desires

These things at the beginning of the day, I must yield to the Lord.

I must imagine Jeremiah 45:5 as if it is being spoken to me:

Seekest thou great things for thyself? Seek them not.

Is everything I do an offering to the Lord? Or is it for my own comfort/approval/self-glorification?

To God be the glory
For the things HE has done.

Not I.
