自古以来，人常见飞鸟翱翔天际。有些飞鸟捕食昆虫，有些以水果和种子为食。既然上帝能为飞鸟预备那么丰富的食物，他也必定能够使地上的仆人得到所需的口粮。上帝帮助他们的方法，也许是让他们找到工作，可以挣钱养家；也许是让他们耕作顺利，得到丰收。他们遭逢急难，缺衣少食，上帝也必定能激动善心的邻人和朋友，慷慨地把自己的东西跟他们分享。

English translation:
The birds of heaven have been in existence for a long time. Some of them feed on insects, others on fruit and seeds. If God has made available such abundant provisions for the birds, surely he is capable of helping his human servants to obtain their daily bread. He may do this by helping them to find employment so as to earn money for food. Or he may grant them success in growing their own food. As for times of emergency, God can move the hearts of kind neighbors and friends to share with needy ones what food they have.
