Sometimes, life makes us feel insignificant. The world is big, and we are just one of many. But God doesn’t see you as just one among the masses. He knows your name, your struggles, and your heartaches.
That is why Jesus gives us Matthew 10:29
“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.”
A sparrow flits across the sky, unnoticed by most. It isn’t grand like an eagle or majestic like a peacock. It doesn’t command attention. Yet, Jesus tells us that not even one falls to the ground apart from the Father’s care. Jesus wants us to realize that if God values something as small as a sparrow, how much more does He value you?
Jesus’ words remind us that we are not forgotten. The same God who paints the sky and tells the waves where to stop has His eyes on you. He doesn’t just see you—He values you. You are not just another face in the crowd; you are a beloved child of the King.
So, when doubts creep in, when you wonder if God sees your pain or hears your prayers, remember the sparrow. If He cares for them, how much more does He care for you? Rest in that truth today.
