8th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A)
4m 24s
It's fitting that this Gospel begins with the admonition reminding us that we cannot serve two masters (God and money) and then delves into Jesus's teaching on worry, because money is often at the top of our worry list. We worry about how to get money if we don't have enough, and we worry about how to keep it when we do have it.
Jesus reminds us that God knows we need food, clothing, and shelter, all of which require money in our culture. However, he tells us that we shouldn't focus our attention on any of these things because if God takes care of the birds and the flowers, how much more will he care for us.
