consider the lilies

Be content - just for a short time - 
to sit unwired, unbothered, 
in the quiet of your home.  
Be still and enjoy it. 
Do as Christ urges in Luke 12 
and consider the lilies - 
be present, pay attention - 
don't cultivate concern but focus.
Dave Harrity

Consider the lilies, how they grow. They neither [wearily] toil nor spin nor weave; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory (his splendor and magnificence) was not arrayed like one of these.
