Do Not Worry; Seek God's Kingdom

Luke 12:22-34
22Then he said to his disciples, "Because of this I tell you, do not worry about the soul, what you will eat, nor about the body, what you will put on." 23For the soul is worth more than food, and the body more than clothing. 24Observe the ravens, that they neither sow nor reap; they have neither inner room nor storehouse, yet God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than the birds? 25And which of you by worrying is able to add a cubit to his span of life? 26If then you are not able to do even the least thing, why worry about the rest? 27Observe the lilies, how they grow: they neither labor nor spin; yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these. 28If then God so clothes the grass in the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith? 29And you, do not seek what you will eat and what you will drink, nor be anxious. 30For all these things the Gentiles of the world seek after; but your Father knows that you need them. 31But seek his kingdom, and these things will be added to you. 32Do not fear, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. 33Sell your possessions and give charity; make for yourselves purses that do not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in the heavens, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. 34For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
