Do Not Worry
He said to his
disciples, "Therefore I tell you, don't be anxious
for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, what you will
wear. Life is more than
food, and the body is more than clothing. Consider the ravens: they don't
sow, they don't reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them.
How much more valuable are you than birds! Which of you by being anxious
can add a cubit to his height? If then you aren't able to do
even the least things, why are you anxious about the rest? Consider the lilies, how they
grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon
in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if this is how God clothes
the grass in the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is cast into the
oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith? Don't seek what you will eat or
what you will drink; neither be anxious. For the nations of the world
seek after all of these things, but your Father knows that you need these
things. But seek God's
Kingdom, and all these things will be added to you. Don't be afraid, little flock,
for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom. Sell that which you have, and
give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which don't grow old,
a treasure in the heavens that doesn't fail, where no thief approaches,
neither moth destroys. For where your treasure is,
there will your heart be also.
Luke 12:22-34
