Luke 12:23

Luke 12:22-32

²²And he said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat, nor about your body, what you will wear. ²³For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing. ²⁴Consider the ravens, that they do not sow nor reap; they have no storeroom nor barn, and yet God feeds them. How much more are you worth than the birds! ²⁵And which of you by worrying can add a cubit to the length of his life? ²⁶If then you cannot even do the least thing, why do you worry about the rest? ²⁷Consider the lilies, how they grow: they do not toil nor spin; but I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these. ²⁸But if God so clothes the grass in the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, you of little faith! ²⁹And you, do not seek what you will eat and what you will drink, and do not be unsettled. ³⁰For all these things the nations of the world seek after; but your Father knows that you need them. ³¹Rather, seek his kingdom, and these things will be added to you. ³²Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father was pleased to give you the kingdom.

Matthew 6:25-34

²⁵“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? ²⁶Look at the birds of the sky: they do not sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns, and your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they? ²⁷And which of you, by worrying, can add a single cubit to his span of life? ²⁸And why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they do not labor nor spin; ²⁹yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these. ³⁰But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into an oven, will he not much more clothe you, you of little faith? ³¹So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ ³²For all these things the nations seek after; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. ³³But seek first the kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. ³⁴So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
