We are Valuable

The very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. — Luke 12:7

Jesus wants his listeners to recognize that they are valuable. Though they might be challenged even to give up their lives for the kingdom of God, that does not mean their lives are not valued by the Lord and God who made them.

Jesus also uses a word picture about sparrows. Sparrows were often sold in the marketplace, and you could buy five for just two pennies. People may have thought sparrows weren’t worth much, but Jesus says, “Not one of them is forgotten by God” v5-6. Then, to highlight how much more valuable his listeners are to the Lord, Jesus says that God numbers even the many hairs on their heads. “Don’t be afraid,” he says; “you are worth more than many sparrows” v7.

Forgotten and worthless. Does this sound familiar to you? In God’s eyes, each person is so valuable that is why he sent Jesus for the Salvation of mankind. God cares.

PRAYER

Lord, help me to realize how much I am worth to you so that I may live for your glory no matter what happens. In Jesus' name Amen.
