Olusegun Arowolo Poet Free verse

O Ye of Little Faith

Behold the birds of the air,
they do not sow nor reap yet,
they feed freely and unhindered,
Are you not better than them?
Who by thought can add one cubit to his size?

You think of clothe and luxury,
Look at the lilies and grasses of the field,
how they are arrayed even more than Solomon in his glory,
Yet,they fadeth and are burnt away the next day,
Would God not clothe you,O ye of little faith?


Reference:Matthew 6:26-30
Let`s have faith in God ,He is able to provide for our needs.If 

animals can be provided for,how much more we humans(created in the 

image of God).JEHOVAH JIREH-THE GREAT PROVIDER.
