Sparrows

I chose a simple little plain brown bird to talk about tonight. I have really been discouraged. I work in such an unhealthy atmosphere. The disrespect I feel there is as thick as a smoggy day in the city. So I started thinking about the Lord and all His goodness and the little sparrows that are mentioned in the bible. If He can care for one of them as much  as He cares for me than I need to change my attitude and get growing in my spiritual relationship with God.

Sparrows are just common little birds. But the bible speaks of them so their importance to God has me thinking. I saw two sparrows having a very intimate moment a few years ago. I was mailing a letter at the mail box outside of the office building where I use to work. Those two little birds were chatting up a storm and fluttering their wings wildly. I am nearly 100% positive that they were being very romantic and I thought they have no one but each other and God to rely on. It is such a shame people don't act more like sparrows instead of  trying to act like eagles and end up looking like turkeys! So here are a few internet images of these sweet little fellows and ladies. They are simple but their message for me as been powerful.

Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

—Matthew 10:29-31  

I lost my grandma 43 years ago today. I felt so sad than and I feel sad today. But one day I will see her again in the presence of My Lord and Savior. I look forward to that day with joy in my heart!
