Worth


“Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies?

Yet not one of them is forgotten by God.

Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.”

Luke 12:6-7








How much are you worth to God?

Luke recorded the words of Jesus above to let us know the answer.

Sparrows were abundant in Jesus’ day even as they are today.

To an agrarian culture they were also a nuisance.

Yet, God did more than just take note of them – not one of them was forgotten by Him.

How much more so the worth of a man or woman in Gods’ eyes?

Perhaps you’ve had someone tell you that you were worthless.  

Worse yet is when you believe it to be true.

But to believe that of yourself or anyone else is to make Jesus a liar.

You are loved and have great worth to God.

Some may try to make you believe otherwise but they cannot change the intent or the heart of God concerning you.

You are worth so much to God!
