“ . . . 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.”
Matthew
10:29-30
On a recent spring morning, an unexpected
bird enjoyed breakfast at our bird feeder. He had landed off-course
and off-schedule. My handy bird book called him a red-naped
sapsucker. He belongs in Eastern Oregon in the summer, not in our
Willamette Valley during springtime. This unusual sighting registered
only as a small event in my life, but I called it a little blessing
from the Lord that day. Eager to share the bird with my husband, I
helped him find his Navy binoculars to get a closer look and verify
my sighting.
Jesus called his disciples more valuable to God than a
flock of sparrows. Our heavenly Father positively cares about us as
well. A little incident or a major event happens under His watchful
eye and care. The psalmist David believed God planned every day of
his life before he was born. (Psalm 139:16)
Father, we give you praise today for our big and not so
big blessings. Thank you for your never ending love.
