(Luk 12:22–31 )
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:25 - 'Because of this I say to you, be not anxious for your life, what ye may eat, and what ye may drink, nor for your body, what ye may put on. Is not the life more than the nourishment, and the body than the clothing?

Unchecked Copy BoxMat 6:34 - Be not therefore anxious for the morrow, for the morrow shall be anxious for its own things; sufficient for the day is the evil of it.
