Matthew 6:33
But seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
When we only seek the things of this World, we may accumulate some, but they will not satisfy. When we seek God's face and His ways, according to His Word, then we will gain not only eternal rewards but also some measure of Earthly prosperity.
This is the verse I quoted that sent my new husband storming out of the house and I didn't know if I'd ever see him again. But that was also the night that God called my husband into sonship with Himself. He was saved that night.
Praise God for helping me to have the strength and fortitude so early in my own walk with God to bear up under the pressure of God's leaning on him to draw him to Himself.
Thank You, Father, for knowing me, and drawing my husband, too. And thank You for the 30 years we had together, and that we both will spend Eternity together with You!
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
