Luke 12:25-28
25 And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? 26 If you then are not able to do the least, why are you anxious for the rest? 27 Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 28 If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith?
Being anxious by worrying about having what we need cannot make us grow, only feel a wanting for more. By seeing God's hand to care for all this world around us we can rest fully in that care for us made in His image. So, we trust, using faith He gives with assurance of His grace and it's contentment because of who He is and who we are in Christ. We are so much more than birds and plants.
