Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind.
