You Are Valuable

29 Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. 30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

Matthew 10:29-31

This message is one of God's reassurances to us, His children, about His providence and how valuable we are in His sight. This reminds every believer that God knows and cares for us, even the smallest details of our lives. God is concerned with His children. By knowing this, we should not let fear and doubts, nor the opinions of others distract us from putting our faith in God and from trusting His plans for our own good. Jesus draws attention to sparrows, which were among the smallest and least valuable birds in the culture. He states that not one of them falls to the ground apart from God's will, and if He cares for them, how much more does He care for you?

If He watches over every sparrow, how much more does He love you?...

So, don't you worry... Our Father loves you!

Your value is worth more than many sparrows. In God's eyes, we are valuable. You are valuable. Be confident in God's care, so that no fear can come in between. Confidence comes to believers in knowing that nothing happens without God's knowledge and care: hard times are not a sign that God has forgotten us. He is watching, He is aware, and He will be with us until the end of the age.
