For this reason I say to you, do not worry about..."
Those 11 verses about worry are immediately followed by verse 33 "Sell your possessions and give to charity;...". My translation (NASB) has the 11 worry verses set off in their own paragraph, but what if verse 33 is part of it: an application of the teaching against worry. That is: don't let the aforementioned worry/fear get in the way of your giving to charity. You don't have to be afraid to give "for your Father has chosen gladly to give you the kingdom."
