Matthew 6:25 Therefore I tell you, do no be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, not about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?

D.A. Carson comments:

“Because transient earthly pleasures do not satisfy and do not last; because moral and spiritual vision is easily distorted and darkened, because a choice must be made between God and money, because the kingdom of God demands unswerving allegiance to its values, therefore do not worry, and in particular do not worry about mere things.

But let us consider a more subtle connection…. Jesus has been minimizing the ultimate significance of material possessions; and no doubt not a few among his hearers find themselves wondering “but what about necessities?”… Jesus answers that just as earthly possessions can become an idol which deposes God by becoming disproportionately important, so also can earthly needs become a source of worry which deposes God by fostering distrust.”
