The Sparrow

You care for the sparrows though they offer so little.
Just a song, a tune 
their lives like a riddle, a picture for us
so we can see plainly 
that You care for everything.
You’re right there in the middle.



”What is the price of two sparrows—one copper coin? But not a single sparrow can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it. And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole flock of sparrows.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭10‬:‭29‬-‭31‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Interestingly, the above passage is found in the context of Jesus sending out His disciples. He warned them, encouraged them, instructed them and He didn't mince words. But He left a solid reassurance to all of them, in essence saying: "I’ve got you. My Father and I completely have your backs. We don't send you out alone. We are with you. Don't be afraid."
