Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these — the flowers receive their splendid clothing from God's creative provision without any effort of their own, and Solomon's active pursuit of splendor cannot match what God freely gives to the grass. The comparison reaches its absurd limit when the disciples' anxiety about clothing is placed next to divine generosity toward grass.
