Daily Reading for Personal Growth, 40 Days with God
19 “Do not lay up treasures for yourselves on the Earth, where the moth and rust corrupt, and where thieves dig through and steal.
20 “But lay up treasures for yourselves in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust corrupts, and where thieves neither dig through nor steal.
21 “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
22 “The light of the body is the eye. If then your eye is sound, your whole body shall be light.
23 “But if your eye is wicked, then all your body shall be dark. So, if the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness?
24 “No man can serve two masters. For either he shall hate the one, and love the other, or else he shall lean to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and riches.
25 “Therefore I say to you, do not be careful for your life, what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; nor for your body, what you shall put on. Has not life more worth than food? And the body than clothing?
26 “Behold the birds of the heaven. For they neither sow nor reap, nor carry into the barns. Yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much better than they?
27 “Which of you by worrying is able to add one cubit to his lifespan?
28 “And why do you care for clothes? Learn how the lilies of the field grow. They neither weary nor spin.
29 “Yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 “So, if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall He not do much more to you? O you of little faith.
31 “Therefore, take no thought saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘How shall we be clothed?’
32 “For the Gentiles seek after all these things. And your Heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things.
33 “But seek first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
34 “Care not then for tomorrow. For tomorrow shall care for itself. The day has enough with its own grief.”
