Is not life more than food, and the body more\nthan clothes? \n<br><br>\n<font color=\"blue\"><b>26<\/b><\/font> Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in\nbarns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable\nthan they? \n<br><br>\n<font color=\"blue\"><b>27<\/b><\/font> Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?\n<br><br>\n<font color=\"blue\"><b>28<\/b><\/font> \u201cAnd why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They\ndo not labour or spin. \n<br><br>\n<font color=\"blue\"><b>29<\/b><\/font> Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendour was\ndressed like one of these. \n<br><br>\n<font color=\"blue\"><b>30<\/b><\/font> If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is\nhere today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you\u2014\nyou of little faith?\n<br><br>\n<font color=\"blue\"><b>31<\/b><\/font> So do not worry, saying, \u2018What shall we eat?\u2019 or \u2018What shall we drink?\u2019 or \u2018What\nshall we wear?\u2019 \n<br><br>\n<font color=\"blue\"><b>32<\/b><\/font> For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly\nFather knows that you need them. \n<br><br>\n<font color=\"blue\"><b>33<\/b><\/font> But seek first his kingdom and his\nrighteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. \n<br><br>\n<font color=\"blue\"><b>34<\/b><\/font> Therefore do not\nworry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.
