Day 196 of 365

You Matter to God

“Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God? But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.”

Luke 12:6-7 (KJV) |

What This Means for You

God keeps track of sparrows. Not eagles, not lions. Sparrows, the smallest, most common birds. And Jesus says you're worth far more than all of them. On the days you feel invisible or overlooked, remember: the God who numbers the hairs on your head has not lost sight of you.

Try This Today

Write this on a sticky note and put it on your bathroom mirror: 'God knows the number of hairs on my head. I am not forgotten.' Read it out loud every morning this week.
