Household Economics - Ways to Practice - Worship
Jesus said to his disciples, "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your
life, what you will eat, or about your body, what you will wear.
For life is more
than food, and the body more than clothing... Instead,
strive for God's kingdom,
and these things will be given to you as well."
— Luke 12:22-23, 31
