"Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father."
MATTHEW 10:29
English sparrows. They're worth barely a penny, Jesus said so. Yet of the world's nine thousand bird species, Jesus singled out the least-noticed and most insignificant of birds to make point.
If God takes times to keep tabs on every sparrow--who it is, where it's going, whether or not it needs are being met--then surely He keeps special tabs on you.Intimately. Personally. And with every detail in mind.
The Bible may point to eagles to underscore courage and power, and it may talk above doves as symbols of peace and contentment. But God's Word reserved sparrow to teach a lesson about trust. Just as God tenderly cares for tiny bird, even making note of when it is harmed, or when it falls to the ground, He gently reminds you that He is worthy of your greatest trust, your deepest confidence.
How do you approach God today? Maybe you feel likes ragamuffin house sparrow clinging to an empty birdfeeder with no one to care He notices.
Try trusting the Lord today as would a sparrow. No question asked No fears that He won't come through. Relax in the protection and provision of your great God.
