Consider the Lilies...
Matthew 6:
25 "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you
will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will
put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
26Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor
gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of
more value than they?
27Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
28"So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the
field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29and yet I say to
you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of
these. 30Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is,
and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe
you, O you of little faith?
31"Therefore do not worry, saying, "What shall we eat?' or "What
shall we drink?' or "What shall we wear?' 32For after all these things
the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all
these things. 33But seek first the kingdom of God and His
righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 34Therefore
do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own
things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
CONSIDER THE LILIES THEY DON'T TOIL NOR SPIN
BUT THERE'S NOT A KING WITH MORE SPLENDOR THAN THEM.
CONSIDER THE SPARROWS THEY DON'T PLANT NOR SOW
BUT HE'S FED BY THE MASTER WHO WATCHES THEM GROW.
CHORUS
WE HAVE A HEAVENLY FATHER ABOVE
WITH EYES FULL OF MERCY AND A HEART FULL OF LOVE.
HE REALLY CARES WHEN YOUR HEAD IS BOWED LOW.
CONSIDER THE LILIES AND THEN YOU WILL KNOW
MAY YOU KNOW THIS FRIEND OF MINE
WHO HANGS OUT THE STARS AND TELLS THE SUN WHEN TO ****NE.
AND KISSES THE FLOWERS EACH MORNING WITH DEW
BUT HE'S NOT TOO BUSY TO CARE ABOUT YOU
Heb.6
[19] Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and
stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;
