Luke 12 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
Do Not Worry
22 And he said to his Disciples: Therefore I say to you, Be not careful for your life, what you shall eat; nor for your body, what you shall do on.
23 The life is more than the meat, and the body is more than the raiment.
24 Consider the ravens, for they sow not, neither do they reap, which neither have storehouse nor barn, and God feedeth them. How much more are you of greater price than they?
25 And which of you by caring can add to his stature one cubit?
26 If then you be not able to do so much as the least thing, for the rest why are you careful?
27 Consider the lilies how they grow: they labour not, neither do they spin. But I say to you, Neither Salomon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these.
28 And if the grass that to day is in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven, God so clotheth; how much more you, O ye of little faith?
29 And you, do not seek what you shall eat, or what you shall drink: and be not lifted up on high.
30 For all these things the Nations of the world do seek. But your Father knoweth that you have need of these things.
31 But seek first the Kingdom of God, and all these things shall be given you besides.
Treasures in Heaven
32 Fear not little flock, for it hath pleased your Father to give you a Kingdom.
