Luke 12:24-28
Consider the ravens: They don’t sow or reap; they don’t have a storeroom or a barn; yet God feeds them. Aren’t you worth much more than the birds?Can any of you add a cubit to his height by worrying?If then you’re not able to do even a little thing, why worry about the rest?“ Consider how the wildflowers grow: They don’t labor or spin thread. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was adorned like one of these!If that’s how God clothes the grass, which is in the field today and is thrown into the furnace tomorrow, how much more will He do for you— you of little faith?

Deuteronomy 5:14
but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. You must not do any work— you, your son or daughter, your male or female slave, your ox or donkey, any of your livestock, or the foreigner who lives within your gates, so that your male and female slaves may rest as you do.

who covers the sky with clouds, prepares rain for the earth, and causes grass to grow on the hills.He provides the animals with their food, and the young ravens, what they cry for.

Matthew 6:26-30
Look at the birds of the sky: They don’t sow or reap or gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you worth more than they?Can any of you add a single cubit to his height by worrying?And why do you worry about clothes? Learn how the wildflowers of the field grow: they don’t labor or spin thread.Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was adorned like one of these!If that’s how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and thrown into the furnace tomorrow, won’t He do much more for you— you of little faith?

Deuteronomy 22:1-4
“ If you see your brother’s ox or sheep straying, you must not ignore it; make sure you return it to your brother.If your brother does not live near you or you don’t know him, you are to bring the animal to your home to remain with you until your brother comes looking for it; then you can return it to him.Do the same for his donkey, his garment, or anything your brother has lost and you have found. You must not ignore it.If you see your brother’s donkey or ox fallen down on the road, you must not ignore it; you must help him lift it up.

Numbers 22:28-35
Then the Lord opened the donkey’s mouth, and she asked Balaam,“ What have I done to you that you have beaten me these three times?”Balaam answered the donkey,“ You made me look like a fool. If I had a sword in my hand, I’d kill you now!”But the donkey said,“ Am I not the donkey you’ve ridden all your life until today? Have I ever treated you this way before?”“ No,” he replied.Then the Lord opened Balaam’s eyes, and he saw the Angel of the Lord standing in the path with a drawn sword in His hand. Balaam knelt and bowed with his face to the ground.The Angel of the Lord asked him,“ Why have you beaten your donkey these three times? Look, I came out to oppose you, because what you are doing is evil in My sight.The donkey saw Me and turned away from Me these three times. If she had not turned away from Me, I would have killed you by now and let her live.”Balaam said to the Angel of the Lord,“ I have sinned, for I did not know that You were standing in the path to confront me. And now, if it is evil in Your sight, I will go back.”Then the Angel of the Lord said to Balaam,“ Go with the men, but you are to say only what I tell you.” So Balaam went with Balak’s officials.
