Sara left many beautiful legacies for us, and one of
them is the gift of her angelic voice. I was listening to her sing His Eye is
On the Sparrow, and I couldn't help but think of how God is again reminding us
to trust Him and surrender our lives to Him.
Take a moment to listen…
Matthew 29-31 says…"Are not two
sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside
your Father’s care. And even the very hairs of your head are
all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you
are worth more than many sparrows.
In times when we are judging our lives
against others, or when we feel that we have disappointed God because we gave
in to our human weakness and sinned, let's remember the story of the sparrow.
We often complain about sparrows and consider them pests and yet Jesus
said, "not one of them falls to the ground outside your Father's
care." This says to me that in God's eyes, no one is insignificant!
And…"You are worth more than many sparrows!"
When God says no one is insignificant…Do you trust that?
God has proven many times in word an action that we can trust Him…this
makes worrying worthless. Worry wears out our mind and our body. It also
impacts our judgement and decision making…ultimately showing God our lack of
faith.
Hab. 3:18…"I will rejoice in the Lord,
I will be joyful in God my Savior."
