Behold the fowls of the air; for they sow not, neither do they reap nor gather

into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than

they?

 

And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field; how they

grow; they toil not, neither do they spin; And yet I say unto you, that even

Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so

clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the

oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

 

Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a

stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil,

know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father

which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
