“Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.”

“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’”

“For the Gentiles strive after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.”

“In past generations, He let all nations go their own way.”

“Some of the Jews were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, along with a large number of God-fearing Greeks and quite a few leading women.”
