Old Testament

New Testament

Matthew 6:23-29 New Century Version (NCV)

23. But if your eyes are evil, your whole body will be full of darkness. And if the only light you have is really darkness, then you have the worst darkness.

24. “No one can serve two masters. The person will hate one master and love the other, or will follow one master and refuse to follow the other. You cannot serve both God and worldly riches.

25. “So I tell you, don’t worry about the food or drink you need to live, or about the clothes you need for your body. Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothes.

26. Look at the birds in the air. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, but your heavenly Father feeds them. And you know that you are worth much more than the birds.

27. You cannot add any time to your life by worrying about it.

28. “And why do you worry about clothes? Look at how the lilies in the field grow. They don’t work or make clothes for themselves.

29. But I tell you that even Solomon with his riches was not dressed as beautifully as one of these flowers.
