Luke 12:6-7 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?
[7] But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
The devil would like us to think that God is too busy for our problems or that we haven’t been good enough to get His attention.
Sometimes we need to be reminded just how valuable we are to our Lord and Savior.
I can never post this song too often.
His Eye Is On The Sparrow
______________________________
Why should I feel discouraged? — Why should the shadows come? — Why should my heart be lonely — And long for heav’n and home? — When Jesus is my portion. — My constant Friend is He: — His eye is on the sparrow, — and I know He watches me;
CHORUS:
I sing because I’m happy, — I sing because I’m free, — For His eye is on the sparrow, — and I know He watches me.
“Let not your heart be troubled,” — His tender word I hear, — and resting on His goodness, — I lose my doubts and fears; — Though by the path He leadeth, — but one step I may see; — His eye is on the sparrow, — and I know He watches me;
Whenever I am tempted, — Whenever clouds arise, — When songs give place to sighing, — When hope within me dies, — I draw the closer to Him, — From care He sets me free; — His eye is on the sparrow, — and I know He watches me;
Civilla D. Martin. 1905
