And seekest thou great things for thyself?

Jeremiah 45:5
And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not:for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord:but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest. (KJV)

Another passage says, seek first the Kingdom of God, and the rest shall be added unto you. Here, it is even sterner, in that seeking things for ourselves are pointless, for Good will bring an end to all material things. It is easy to forget these when we live in a material world, especially one which is enjoying peace.
