Matthew:6:25-34
Seeker Overlay ON
* "
Therefore I say to you ,
do not worry about your life ,
what you will eat or what you will drink ;
nor about your body ,
what you will 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 gather into barns ;
yet your heavenly Father feeds them .
Are you not of more value than they ?
*
Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature ?
* "
So why do you worry about clothing ?
Consider the lilies of the field ,
how they grow :
they neither toil nor spin ;
*
and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these .
*
Now if God so clothes the grass of the field ,
which today is ,
and tomorrow is thrown 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 wear ?'
*
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 things .
Sufficient for the day is its own trouble .
