Matthew:6:25-34
Seeker Overlay ON
*
For this cause I say unto you ,
Do not be careful about your life ,
what ye should eat and what ye should drink ;
nor for your body what ye should put on .
Is not the life more than food ,
and the body than raiment ?
*
Look at the birds of the heaven ,
that they sow not ,
nor reap ,
nor gather into granaries ,
and your heavenly Father nourishes them .
Are ye not much more excellent than they ?
*
But which of you by carefulness can add to his growth one cubit ?
*
And why are ye careful about clothing ?
Observe with attention the lilies of the field ,
how they grow :
they toil not ,
neither do they spin ;
*
but I say unto you ,
that not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed as one of these .
*
But if God so clothe the herbage of the field ,
which is to-day ,
and to-morrow is cast into [
the ]
oven ,
will he not much rather you ,
O [
ye ]
of little faith ?
*
Be not therefore careful ,
saying ,
What shall we eat ?
or What shall we drink ?
or What shall we put on ?
*
for all these things the nations seek after ;
for your heavenly Father knows that ye have need of all these things .
*
But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness ,
and all these things shall be added unto you .
*
Be not careful therefore for the morrow ,
for the morrow shall be careful about itself .
Sufficient to the day [
is ]
its own evil .
