More Value

The view out my window this morning as I was washing my dishes reminded me of these verses about God's care for us.
Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?
But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
Luke 11:6-7
I remember a song I used to sing as a child.
There are hundreds of sparrows, thousands and millions.
There's one a penny, far too many, there must be.
There are hundreds of sparrows, thousands and millions.
But God knows everyone and God knows me.
In spite of how big God is and how many people there in the world, God cares about YOU. God doesn't forget a single sparrow, and we are worth far more than them.
Sometimes it seems our problems and circumstances must be so insignificant to God. And yet He commands us to to be anxious about nothing, but pray to Him about everything. We have a God who cares about us as individuals, not just as a group of humans.
Do you have a personal relationship with this God?
