Matthew 6:22-32

22 "The eye is the lamp of the body. If then your eyesight is good, your whole body will be well lighted;

23 but if your eyesight is bad, your whole body will be dark. If however the very light within you is darkness, how dense must the darkness be!

24 "No man can be the bondservant of two masters; for either he will dislike one and like the other, or he will attach himself to one and think slightingly of the other. You cannot be the bondservants both of God and of gold.

25 For this reason I charge you not to be over-anxious about your lives, inquiring what you are to eat or what you are to drink, nor yet about your bodies, inquiring what clothes you are to put on. Is not the life more precious than its food, and the body than its clothing?

26 Look at the birds which fly in the air: they do not sow or reap or store up in barns, but your Heavenly Father feeds them: are not you of much greater value than they?

27 Which of you by being over-anxious can add a single foot to his height?

28 And why be anxious about clothing? Learn a lesson from the wild lilies. Watch their growth. They neither toil nor spin,

29 and yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his magnificence could array himself like one of these.

30 And if God so clothes the wild herbage which to-day flourishes and to-morrow is thrown into the oven, is it not much more certain that He will clothe you, you men of little faith?

31 Do not be over-anxious, therefore, asking `What shall we eat?' or `What shall we drink?' or `What shall we wear?'

32 For all these are questions that Gentiles are always asking; but your Heavenly Father knows that you need these things--all of them.
