Matthew:6:25-34
Seeker Overlay ON
* "
Because of this I say to you ,
do not worry [
about ]
your life-what you shall eat ,
or what you shall drink-nor [
about ]
your body ,
what you shall put on .
Is not life more than food and the body [
more than ]
clothing ?
*
Look at the birds of the air ,
for they neither sow nor reap ,
nor do they gather into barns ;
yet your heavenly Father feeds them .
Are you not worth more than they ?
*
Which of you by worrying is able to add one cubit to his stature ?
*
So why do you worry about clothes ?
Consider the lilies of the field ,
how they grow ;
they neither labor ,
nor spin ;
*
and yet I say to you ,
that not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed like one of these .
*
But if God thus clothes the grass of the field ,
which exists today ,
and tomorrow is cast into the oven , [
will He ]
not much more [
clothe ]
you , [
O you ]
of little faith ?
*
Therefore do not worry ,
saying , '
What shall we eat ?'
or '
What shall we drink ?'
or '
What shall we put on ?'
* "
For after all these things the Gentiles seek .
For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things .
*
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness ,
and all these things shall be added to you .
*
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow ,
for tomorrow will worry about its own affairs .
Each day has enough trouble of its own .
