>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?

>Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

>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 to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

>Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

>(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

>But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

>Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Cute Eastern bluebird. I didn't bother reading your Jew text. I would gladly dismember Christ while singing with that cute bird. Do you want to be martyred with that Jew too?

is it suggesting that if one does nothing but "seek first the kingdom of God" that everything will work out okay for them? seem pretty bold to me.

>Take no thought for the morrow
Perhaps the single dumbest piece of advice ever. No thrift, no investment, no planning, just rely on god, bro. No wonder Rousseau referred to Christians as the worst possible citizens

Is this just reinforcing that following God is the only necessity?
