Context
Exhortation Not to Worry
12:22 Then Jesus said to his disciples , “Therefore I tell you , do not worry about your life , what you will eat , or about your body , what you will wear .
12:23 For there is more to life than food , and more to the body than clothing .
12:24 Consider the ravens : They do not sow or reap , they have no storeroom or barn , yet God feeds them . How much more valuable are you than the birds !
12:25 And which of you by worrying can add an hour to his life ?
12:26 So if you cannot cannot do such a very little thing as this, why do you worry about the rest ?
12:27 Consider how the flowers grow ; they do not work or spin . Yet I tell you , not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these !
12:28 And if this is how God clothes the wild grass , which is here today and tomorrow is tossed into the fire to heat the oven , how much more will he clothe you, you people of little faith !
12:29 So do not be overly concerned about what you will eat and what you will drink , and do not worry about such things.
12:30 For all the nations of the world pursue these things , and your Father knows that you need them .
12:31 Instead , pursue his kingdom , and these things will be given to you as well.
12:32 “Do not be afraid , little flock , for your Father is well pleased to give you the kingdom .
12:33 Sell your possessions and give to the poor . Provide yourselves purses that do not wear out – a treasure in heaven that never decreases , where no thief approaches and no moth destroys .
12:34 For where your treasure is , there your heart will be also .
