Aren't you worth more than they?" (Matthew 6:25-26)
God promised us that we can ask Him for anything - "So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened" (Luke 11:9-10).
