which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall

ever. Amen._]
_5. Single-hearted Devotion to God, as Opposed to Worldly Aims and
Anxieties_
Matt. 6:19-34
19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth
and rust doth consume, and where thieves [1]break through and
20 steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither
moth nor rust doth consume, and where thieves do not [1]break
21 through nor steal: for where thy treasure is, there will thy heart
22 be also. The lamp of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be
23 single, thy whole body shall be full of light. But if thine eye be
evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the
24 light that is in thee be darkness, how great is the darkness! No
man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and
love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the
25 other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Therefore I say unto you,
Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall
drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the
26 life more than the food, and the body than the raiment? Behold
the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, neither do they reap,
nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are
27 not ye of much more value than they? And which of you by being
28 anxious can add one cubit unto his [2]stature? And why are ye
anxious concerning raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how
29 they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: yet I say unto
you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one
30 of these. But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which
to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, _shall he_ not
31 much more _clothe_ you, O ye of little faith? Be not therefore
anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or,
32 Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the
Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need
33 of all these things. But seek ye first his kingdom, and his
34 righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Be
not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be
anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
[Footnote 1: Gr. _dig through_.]
[Footnote 2: Or, _age_.]
