Those who look: to money as their great support fort evory time of need are really refusing to put their trust in God. Money is their god. One cannot trust in God and in money at the same time. V. 25. Men love money because it can purchose the necessities of life. Jesus does not recommend thought- lessness, nor is he advocating idleness or earlessness, but he is .warning them against that anxious care w h'•h is worried and alarmed over the •.+ays and means of getting on.

A lesson is here drawn from God's providential care ea the lower creatures. The birds of the air do not have man's intelligence, they cannot sow, reap, or build barns to store their grain, yet they get enough to eat. Bird life never .ceases, and all of this is due to God's oversight. There is a providential envoi -meat of the world. The sante rule must hold when We pass up hgher to human life. We are of more value than many spar- rows. `'We never knew an earthly father take care of his fowls and leg - sect his children, and shall we fear this from our heavenly Father?" V. 27• Our very weakness drives its to depend upon our Father in. heaven. Man eat indeed do many things, and he must work hard in this sphere in which he has been placed; but his powers are very limited. He cannot add a cubit to his height. He must take the body which is • given to hint. Why, therefore, should we worry and struggle as if everything depend- ed on aur own effort! II.
