trust in God
What must come first is our radical trust in God, in doing his will. Yes, we need to be concerned about material goods, but spiritual sickness comes when we invert the relationship.
involvement
In our relationships with others, we cannot just be present. We need to be involved. Being present is like being a Scarecrow in the field, useless in preventing the birds from gnawing at the fruits. We need to be involved, actively, protecting and assuring those around us that we are not only just present, but active to help, to walk, to give.
