Anxiety

Anxiety

22And he said to his disciples, “For this reason I tell you, do not be anxious for your[fn] life, what you will eat, or foryour[fn] body, what you will wear. 23For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing. 24Consider the ravens, that they neither sow nor reap; to them there is neither storeroom nor barn, and God feeds them. How much more are you worth than the birds? 25And which of you by[fn] being anxious is able to add an hour[fn] to his life span? 26If then you are not even able to do a very little thing, why are you anxious about the rest? 27Consider the lilies, how they grow: they do not toil or spin, but I say to you, not even Solomon in all his glory was dressed like one of these. 28But if God clothes the grass in the field in this way, although it[fn] ishere today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he do so for[fn] you, you of little faith? 29And you, do not consider what you will eat and what you will drink, and do not be anxious. 30For all the nations of the world seek after these things, and your Father knows that you need these things. 31But seek his kingdom and these things will be added to you.

32“Do not be afraid, little flock, because your Father is well pleased to give you the kingdom. 33Sell your possessions and give charitable gifts. Make for yourselves money bags that do not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven[fn] where thief does not approach or moth destroy. 34For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
