Luke 12:23-28

23For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing.

24Consider the 1ravens, for they neither sow nor reap; they have no storeroom nor 2barn, and yet God feeds them; how much more valuable you are than the birds!

25And which of you by worrying can add a single 34hour to his 5life’s span?

26If then you cannot do even a very little thing, why do you worry about other matters?

27Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; but I tell you, not even 6Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these.

28But if God so clothes the grass in the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you? 7You men of little faith!
