Your promises give me strength in all my troubles, how they refresh and revive me.

"Do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows."  (Luke 12: 7 NABRE)

Why are we so fearful?  Consider for a moment the things we fear:  ill-health, poverty, depression, divorce, joblessness, thefts, bankruptcy, etc.  We can fill pages with the things we fear.

Now consider the words of Jesus:  The price of five sparrows is less than a dime.  Yet one of these sparrows is precious in the eyes of God.

Do you think you are precious in the eyes of God?  God loves humanity so much that He entrusted to him the care of the universe.  He sent His Son to die to save man.  Yet man cannot trust God to provide him with his needs.   Think of the sparrow and give thanks to God for His love and plan for man.
