In the midst of trials and tribulations He offers peace. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith (Matt 6:25-30)? Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. The message of Consider the Lilies rightly tells about God’s care for His children and His provision. The song was rather popular on Southern Gospel stations then I often heard The Hemphills sing it and quickly grew to love the words, melody and message. I first heard Consider the Lilies at a church I attended in Marietta, Georgia in 1980. Consider the Lilies speaks to that fleshy problem. Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these (Luke 12:27).ĭo you fret are you a worrier? I know I am.
