And why are you stressing about what to wear? Look at the wildflowers — they don't work jobs or hustle to make their clothes, yet they're absolutely stunning.

Look at the birds flying around — they don't plant crops, harvest anything, or stress about storing food for later. But your Father in heaven still makes sure they're fed. Don't you think you matter way more to him than they do?
