Consider the Lilies
Matthew 6:28
And why take you thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:


Contentment without distrust.

I. They are CLOTHED WITH BEAUTY (1 Peter 3:3, 4).

II. They GROW WITHOUT ANXIETY. They never fret because of the heat, drought, rain, or cold. They pass through changes; are of different growth.

III. They are WATCHED, ALTHOUGH SOON TO PALL.

(Canon Titcomb, M. A.)
