Seek the Kingdom of God above all else,
and live righteously,
and he will give you everything you need.
So don’t worry about tomorrow,
for tomorrow will bring its own worries.
Today’s trouble is enough for today.
(Pine Warbler)
…I tell you not to worry about everyday life…
Look at the birds.
They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns,
for your heavenly Father feeds them.
And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are?
Don’t store up treasures here on earth,
where moths eat them and rust destroys them
and thieves break in and steal.
Store your treasures in heaven,
where moths and rust cannot destroy,
and thieves do not break in and steal.
Wherever your treasure is,
there the desires of your heart will also be.
(Chipping sparrow)
“Watch out!
Don’t do your good deeds publicly,
to be admired by others,
for you will lose the reward from your Father in heaven.
For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish,
but have everlasting life.
“Get out of here, Satan,”
Jesus told him.
“For the Scriptures say,
‘You must worship the LORD your God
and serve only him’”
…the angel said,
“do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife.
For the child within her was conceived by the Holy Spirit.
…”This is what the LORD says to Zerubbabel:
It is not by force nor by strength,
but by my Spirit,
says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies.
