²²Jesus said to his followers, “So I tell you, don’t worry about the food you need to live, or about the clothes you need for your body. ²³Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothes. ²⁴Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest, they don’t have storerooms or barns, but God feeds them. And you are worth much more than birds. ²⁵You cannot add any time to your life by worrying about it. ²⁶If you cannot do even the little things, then why worry about the big things? ²⁷Consider how the lilies grow; they don’t work or make clothes for themselves. But I tell you that even Solomon with his riches was not dressed as beautifully as one of these flowers. ²⁸God clothes the grass in the field, which is alive today but tomorrow is thrown into the fire. So how much more will God clothe you? Don’t have so little faith! ²⁹Don’t always think about what you will eat or what you will drink, and don’t keep worrying. ³⁰All the people in the world are trying to get these things, and your Father knows you need them. ³¹But seek God’s kingdom, and all your other needs will be met as well.

Don’t Trust in Money

³²“Don’t fear, little flock, because your Father wants to give you the kingdom. ³³Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Get for yourselves purses that will not wear out, the treasure in heaven that never runs out, where thieves can’t steal and moths can’t destroy. ³⁴Your heart will be where your treasure is.
