Which of you can add an ell to his height by troubling about it? And why should you trouble over clothing? Look how the lilies of the field grow; they neither toil nor spin, read more.
and yet, I tell you, even Solomon in all his grandeur was never robed like one of them. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field which blooms to-day and is thrown to-morrow into the furnace, will not he much more clothe you? O men, how little you trust him! Do not be troubled, then, and cry, 'What are we to eat?' or 'what are we to drink?' or 'how are we to be clothed?' (pagans make all that their aim in life) for your heavenly Father knows quite well you need all that. Seek God's Realm and his goodness, and all that will be yours over and above. So do not be troubled about to-morrow; to-morrow will take care of itself. The day's own trouble is quite enough for the day.

So do not seek food and drink and be worried; pagans make food and drink their aim in life, but your Father knows quite well you need that; only seek his Realm, and it will be yours over and above. Fear not, you little flock, for your Father is delighted to give you the Realm.

Never be anxious, but always make your requests known to God in prayer and supplication with thanksgiving; so shall God's peace, that surpasses all our dreams, keep guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

Humble yourselves under the strong hand of God, then, so that when it is time, he may raise you; let all your anxieties fall upon him, for his interest is in you.
