Isaiah 49: 14-15

49:14 And Zion said: “The Lord has abandoned me, and the Lord has forgotten me.”

49:15 Can a woman forget her infant, so as not to take pity on the child of her womb? But even if she would forget, still I shall never forget you.

Ikalawang Liham sa mga taga-Corinto 4: 1-5

4:1 Samakatuwid, dahil mayroon tayong ministeryong ito, at hangga't nakamit natin ang awa para sa ating sarili, hindi tayo kulang.

4:2 Sapagkat itinatakwil namin ang kalapastanganan at mga nakatagong gawa, hindi lumalakad sa pamamagitan ng katusuhan, ni sa pamamagitan ng pag-adulto sa Salita ng Diyos. sa halip, sa pamamagitan ng pagpapakita ng katotohanan, ipinagkatiwala namin ang aming sarili sa budhi ng bawat tao sa harap ng Diyos.

4:3 Ngunit kung ang ating Ebanghelyo ay nakatago sa isang paraan, ito ay nakatago sa mga namamatay.

4:4 Sa kanila naman, binulag ng diyos ng panahong ito ang isipan ng mga hindi mananampalataya, upang ang liwanag ng Ebanghelyo ng kaluwalhatian ni Kristo, na siyang larawan ng Diyos, hindi magniningning sa kanila.

4:5 Sapagkat hindi tayo nangangaral tungkol sa ating sarili, kundi tungkol kay Jesu-Cristo na ating Panginoon. Kami ay mga lingkod mo lamang sa pamamagitan ni Hesus.

Ebanghelyo

Mateo 6: 24-34

Ang Banal na Ebanghelyo Ayon kay Mateo 6: 24-34

6:24	No one is able to serve two masters. For either he will have hatred for the one, and love the other, or he will persevere with the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.
6:25	At kaya sinasabi ko sa iyo, do not be anxious about your life, as to what you will eat, nor about your body, as to what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
6:26	Consider the birds of the air, how they neither sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of much greater value than they are?
6:27	And which of you, by thinking, is able to add one cubit to his stature?
6:28	And as for clothing, why are you anxious? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither work nor weave.
6:29	Ngunit sinasabi ko sa iyo, that not even Solomon, in all his glory, was arrayed like one of these.
6:30	So if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and cast into the oven tomorrow, how much more will he care for you, O maliit sa pananampalataya?
6:31	Samakatuwid, do not choose to be anxious, kasabihan: ‘What shall we eat, and what shall we drink, and with what shall we be clothed?'
6:32	For the Gentiles seek all these things. Yet your Father knows that you need all these things.
6:33	Samakatuwid, seek first the kingdom of God and his justice, and all these things shall be added to you as well.
6:34	Samakatuwid, do not be anxious about tomorrow; for the future day will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its evil.”
