Job 10:8-9 (Amplified Bible)
"Your hands have formed me and made me. 
Would You turn around and destroy me? 
Remember (earnestly), I beseech You,
that You have fasioned me as clay
(out of the same earth material,
exquisitely and elaborately). 
And will You bring me into dust again?"

Matthew 6:28-29
"And why should you be anxious about clothes? 
Consider the lilies of the field and
learn thorougly how they grow;
they neither toil nor spin. 
Yet I tell you, even Solomon
in all his magnificence
(excellence, dignity, and grace)
was not arrayed like one of these."
