Anxious For Nothing

For this reason I say to you, do not be anxious for your life,

               as to what you shall eat, or what you shall drink,

               nor for your body as to what you shall put on.

Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?

Look at the birds of the air, 

                that they do not sow,

                neither do they reap, nor gather into barns,

                and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.

Are you not more than they?

And which of you by being anxious can add a single cubit to his life's span?

And why are you anxious about clothing?

Observe how the lilies of the field grow;

             they do not toil nor do they spin, yet I say to you 

             that even Solomon in all his glory

             did not clothe himself like one of these.

But if God so arrays the grass of the field, 

which is alive today and thrown into the furnace,

Will He not much more do so for you, O men of little faith?

Do not be anxious then, saying
          "what shall we eat?" or
                   "what shall we drink?" or
                            "what shall we wear?"
For all these things the Gentiles eagerly seek;

for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.

But seek first His kingdom, and His righteousness;
and all these things will be added to you.
Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will care for itself.
Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Matthew 6:25-34
