Jesus
said, “For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to
what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your body, as to what you
will put on. Is not life more than food,
and the body more than clothing?
“Look
at the birds of the air, that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns,
and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.
Are you not worth much more than they?
“And
who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life?
“And
why are you worried about clothing? Observe
how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin, yet I say
to you that not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of
these.
“But
if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is
thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you? You of little faith.
“Do
not worry then, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What
will we wear for clothing?’ For the
Gentiles eagerly seek all these things.
But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things
will be added to you.”
Matthew
6:25-33
