Matthew 6:26 in context

  1. 24“No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You can’t serve both God and Mammon.
  2. 25Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
  3. 26See the birds of the sky, that they don’t sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you of much more value than they?
  4. 27“Which of you, by being anxious, can add one moment to his lifespan?
  5. 28Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin,
