Why

and do not take a bag for your journey, nor two shirts, nor shoes, nor a staff, for the workman deserves his food!

And he answered, "The man who has two shirts must share with the man who has none, and the man who has food must do the same."
Luke 22:35
And he said to them, "When I sent you out without any purse or bag or shoes, was there anything you needed?" They said, "No, nothing."
The lilies
