Luke 12:27-32

27Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither labor nor 1spin; but I tell you, not even 2Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these. 28Now 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? 3You of little faith! 29And do not 4seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, and do not 5keep worrying. 30For 6all these things are what the nations of the world 7eagerly seek; and your Father knows that you need these things. 31But 8seek His kingdom, and 9these things will be 10provided to you. 32 11 12Do not be afraid, 13little flock, because 14your Father has chosen to give you the kingdom.
