Worth So Much

Scripture: 28 Don’t fear those who aim to kill just the body but are unable to touch the soul. The One to fear is He who can destroy you, soul and body, in the fires of hell. 29 Look, if you sold a few sparrows, how much money would you get? A copper coin apiece, perhaps? And yet your Father in heaven knows when those small sparrows fall to the ground. 30-31 You, beloved, are worth so
much more than a whole flock of sparrows. God knows everything about you, even the number of hairs on your head. So do not fear. (Matthew 10:28-31 The Voice) I’ve had such a vivid picture of these verses this morning! Fresh snow with the trees once again loaded down; and then the birds come. So many, and so varied; robins, sparrows, all eating of the berries on the trees. They are black against the white snow as the fly from tree to tree and perch and eat. And to think God knows all about them and what they need and where they are. And then, I am reminded once again that my God knows everything about me, where I live, and what I need! This morning, Lord, my heart is full as I am watching the birds and knowing your care for them, but that Your care for me is so great! Thank You, and I love You. AMEN I will shout with joy to the Lord. I acknowledge that the Lord is God! He made us and we are His people, the sheep of His pasture. Psalm 10
