Matthew 6:31-34 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
There's that little, big word.... "but." This popular verse, verse 33 is quoted, alluded to, and even sung over and over again. It is such a core truth: seek the eternal, the will of God, what is really important, first, and the temporal will fall into place. That is set in contrast to what we usually do: we worry. When God rules and reigns in our hearts and lives, when He has His rightful place, we won't worry.
