Title: Matt 6:25-34
1Matt 625-34 Therefore I tell you, do not
worry about your life, what you will eat or
drink or about your body, what you will wear. Is
not life more important than food, and the body
more important than clothes? Look at the birds of
the air they do not sow or reap or store away in
barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.
2Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of
you by worrying can add a single hour to his
life? And why do you worry about clothes? See how
the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor
or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in
all his splendor was dressed like one of these.
If that is how God clothes the grass of the
field,
3which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into
the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you
of little faith? So do not worry, saying, What
shall we eat? or What shall we drink? or What
shall we wear? For the pagans run after all
these things, and your heavenly Father knows that
you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his
righteousness,
4and all these things will be given to you as
well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for
tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has
enough trouble of its own.

6Luke 741-50 - Then Jesus told him this story A
man loaned money to two people - five hundred
pieces of silver to one and fifty pieces to the
other. But neither of them could repay him, so he
kindly forgave them both, canceling their debts.
Who do you suppose loved him more after
that? Simon answered, I suppose the one for
whom he canceled the larger debt.
7That's right, Jesus said. Then he turned to the
woman and said to Simon, Look at this woman
kneeling here. When I entered your home, you
didnt offer me water to wash the dust from my
feet, but she has washed them with her tears and
wiped them with her hair. You didnt give me a
kiss of greeting,
8but she has kissed my feet again and again from
the time I first came in. You neglected the
courtesy of olive oil to anoint my head, but she
has anointed my feet with rare perfume. I tell
you, her sins - and they are many - have been
forgiven, so she has shown me much love. But a
person who is forgiven little shows only little
love.
9Then Jesus said to the woman, Your sins are
forgiven. The men at the table said among
themselves, Who does this man think he is, going
around forgiving sins? And Jesus said to the
woman, Your faith has saved you go in peace.
