Luke 12:23 Themes and Topics

Therefore I say unto you, Be not solicitous for your soul what you may eat, nor for your body what you may put on. Is not your soul more valuable than food, and your body than raiment? Look unto the fowls of heaven, how they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are you not more excellent than they?

And why are you solicitous concerning raiment? Know the lilies of the field how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin. But I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed as one of these. But if God so clothed the verdure of the field, existing today and tomorrow cast into the oven, how much more you, O ye of little faith? Therefore be not solicitous, saying, What can we eat? or what can we drink? or with what can we be clothed? For after all these things the heathen were seeking; for your heavenly Father knoweth that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Therefore be not solicitous unto the morrow: for the morrow will be solicitous for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

And which one of you being solicitous is able to add one moment to his existence? If then you are powerless in the smallest matter, why are you solicitous about other things? Observe the lilies, how they toil not, neither do they spin: and I say unto you, That Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed as one of these. And if God so clothes the verdure flourishing in the fields to-day, and to-morrow cast into the oven; how much more are you, O ye of little faith? And do not seek what you may eat, and what you may drink, and with what you are clothed; for the heathens of the world are seeking after all these things: but your Father knows that you have need of these things. Moreover seek His kingdom and these things shall be added unto you. Fear not, little flock; because your Father is well pleased to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions and give alms; make for yourselves purses that will not get old, and treasure in the heavens which can not be stolen, where the thief does not draw nigh, nor the moth corrupt. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be.
