The Cure for Anxiety

(Luk 12:22–31 )
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:25 - Therefore I say unto you, Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the raiment?

Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:27 - And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit unto the measure of his life?
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:28 - And why are ye anxious concerning raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:29 - yet I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:30 - But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:34 - Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
