"We are from another time, another place, another world. We do not have permanent residence here , at least not in this telestial tenement. When the Savior counseled his disciples to "take no thought for the morrow", what they should eat or drink or wear, he was warning against becoming too acclimated to a fallen sphere, warning against earthly anxiety and attachment to this world's worries and enticements." - Robert L. Millet in "An Eye Single to the Glory of God" pg. 102.

That's a really good point. I hadn't really thought of it that way and I definitely need some work!
This life is a test. No doubt about that. He is implying that spiritual duties should take presidence over earthly matters. It's all about eternal perspective. Thanks Ames.
