Do not fear therefore;
you are of more value

In his book ON THE WING, Alan Tennant chronicles his efforts to track the migration of the peregrine falcon. Valued for their beauty, swiftness, and power, these amazing birds of prey were favorite hunting companions of emperors and nobility. Sadly, the wide use of the pesticide DDT in the 1950s interfered with their reproductive cycle and placed them on the endangered species list.

Interested in the recovery of this species, Tennant attached transmitters to a select number of falcons to track their migration patterns. But when he and his pilot flew their Cessna behind the birds, they repeatedly lost signal from the transmitters. Despite their advanced technology, they were not always able to track the birds they wanted to help.

It's good to know that the God who cares for us never loses track of us. In fact, Jesus said that not even one sparrow "falls to the ground apart from [God's] will.... Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparows" (Matt. 10:29-31).

When we face difficult circumstances, fear may cause us to wonder if God is aware of our situation. Jesus' teaching assures us that God cares deeply and is in control. His tracking of our lives will never fail.

If God cares for birds,
will He not care for His children?

*************Today's Bible Reading __ Matthew 110:27-31**********

27 Whatever I tell you in
the dark, speak in the light;
and what you hear in the
ear, preach on the
housetops. 28 And do not
fear those who kill the body
but cannot kill the soul. But
rather fear Him who is able
to destroy both soul and
body in hell. 29 Are not two
sparrows sold for a copper
coin? And not one of them
falls to the ground apart
from you Father's will.

30 But the very hairs of your
head are all numbered.

31 Do not fear therefore; you
are of more value than
many sparrows.

Despite our ever-changing circumstances and emotions, God is
near and sees our situation. "The eyes of the LORD run to and from
throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of
those whose heart is loyal to Him" (2 Chron. 16.9). In THE PURSUIT
OF GOD, A. W. Tozer wrote this of all believers: "Wherever we are,
God is here. There is no place, there can be no place, where He is
not. Ten million intelligences standing at as many points in space
and separated by incomprehensible distances can each one say with
equal truth, God is here.... No one is in mere distance any further
from or any nearer to God than any other person is."
