DAILY?READINGS: Gen. 11:27 to 12:20; Job 15; Matt. 7:7-29

But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. Luke 12:7

We have a bird feeder outside our windows and it gives us much pleasure to watch the small birds feeding each day. How amazing the words of our Lord, when He says that not one of them falls to the ground without Him knowing! That, and the amazingly intimate knowledge He has of each person, gives us the comfort of knowing that we are more special to Him than all the sparrows put together. —G. Frear

A tiny sparrow cannot die,
Our Father sees it fall and lie;
How much more, He knows our moves,
His love for us this surely proves. —G. F
