Do Not Worry
Luke 12:22-34
Do Not Worry
22 Then He said to His disciples, “Therefore I say
to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; nor about the
body, what you will put on. 23 Life is more than
food, and the body is more than clothing. 24 Consider
the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse
nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the
birds? 25 And which of you by worrying can add one
cubit to his stature? 26 If you then are not able
to do the least, why are you anxious for the rest? 27
Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet
I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of
these. 28 If then God so clothes the grass, which
today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more
will He clothe you, O you of little faith? 29
“And do not seek what you should eat or
what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind. 30
For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father
knows that you need these things. 31 But seek the
kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.
32 “Do not fear, little flock,
for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. 33
Sell what you have and give alms; provide yourselves money bags which
do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no
thief approaches nor moth destroys. 34 For where
your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
