(Luk 12:22–31 )
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:25 - "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious 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?

Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:28 - And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin;

Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:30 - But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O men of little faith?

Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:34 - "Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Let the day's own trouble be sufficient for the day.
