Then Jesus said to the disciples, "And so I tell you not to worry about the food you need to stay alive or about the clothes you need for your body. Life is much more important than food, and the body much more important than clothes. Look at the crows: they don't plant seeds or gather a harvest; they do not have storage room or barns; God feeds them! You are worth so much more than birds? Can any of you live a bit longer by worrying about it?
Look how the wild flowers grow: they don't work or make clothes for themselves., But I tell you that not even King Solomon with all his wealth had clothes a beautiful as one of theses flowers. It is God who clothes the wild grass--grass that is here today and gone tomorrow, burned up in the oven. Won't he be all the more sure to clothe you? What little faith you have!
So don't be all upset, Always concern about what you will eat and drink. (For the pagans of this world are always concerned about all these things.) Your Father knows that you need these things.
Instead, be concerned with his Kingdom, and he will provide you with these things.
Luke 12: 22-31, Good News Bible
