29 And God went on to say: “Here* I have given to YOU all vegetation bearing seed which is on the surface of the whole earth and every tree on which there is the fruit of a tree bearing seed.+ To YOU let it serve as food.+
25 “On this account I say to YOU: Stop being anxious+ about YOUR souls* as to what YOU will eat or what YOU will drink, or about YOUR bodies as to what YOU will wear.+ Does not the soul mean more than food and the body than clothing?+
30 If, now, God thus clothes the vegetation of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much rather clothe YOU, YOU with little faith?+
28 If, now, God thus clothes the vegetation in the field that today exists and tomorrow is cast into an oven, how much rather will he clothe YOU, YOU with little faith!+
16 “For God loved+ the world* so much that he gave his only-begotten Son,+ in order that everyone exercising faith+ in him might not be destroyed+ but have everlasting life.+
17 although, indeed, he did not leave himself without witness in that he did good,+ giving YOU rains+ from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling YOUR hearts to the full with food and good cheer.”+
