22 And He said to His disciples, “Because of this, to you I say, do not be anxious for your life, what you may eat; nor for the body, what you may put on; 23 life is more than nourishment, and the body than clothing. 24 Consider the ravens, that they do not sow, nor reap, to which there is no barn nor storehouse, and God nourishes them; how much better are you than the birds? 25 And who of you, being anxious, is able to add to his age one cubit? 26 If, then, you are not able for the least—why are you anxious for the rest? 27 Consider the lilies, how do they grow? They do not labor, nor do they spin, and I say to you, not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed as one of these; 28 and if the herbage in the field, that today is, and tomorrow is cast into an oven, God so clothes, how much more you of little faith? 29 And you—do not seek what you may eat, or what you may drink, and do not be in suspense, 30 for the nations of the world seek after all these things, and your Father has known that you have need of these things; 31 but seek the Kingdom of God, and all these things will be added to you.
