I loved these words that I read to Anna and Taylor over breakfast....
"If you had to pick one bird out of the nine thousand species in the world to talk about, which one would you pick? A peacock? A kingfisher? Someone fancy?
Jesus chose the drabbest, dullest, commonest, brashest, most irritating, badly behaved, small and screechy bird-- one that doesn't even have its own song.
He chose the sparrow. And said every single sparrow is made by God, looked after by him and loved by him. God, who made the endless galaxies and planets and the stars in the vast heavens, says a tiny sparrow doesn't come to the end of its tiny life without him noticing.
If God cares for the tiniest sparrow, how much more must he care for you, his child?" -Sally Lloyd Jones Thoughts to Make Your Heart Sing
Not a single sparrow can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it. -Matthew 10:29
