Listen from:
When Gracie was playing in the backyard one morning, she saw a tiny bird lying dead on the ground. It must have fallen out of the nest. Gracie felt so badly about it that she brought the little thing in for Mother to see.
“God saw the little bird fall,” said Mother. “The Lord Jesus talked about little sparrows and said, ‘one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father... Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.” Matt. 10:29,3129Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. (Matthew 10:29)
31Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows. (Matthew 10:31)
.
“If God who made this great universe cares for the little sparrow, how much more will He care for a little one who trusts in Jesus.”
God sees the little sparrow fall,
It meets His tender view.
If He so loves the little birds,
I know He loves me too.
