There isn't a person who doesn't want to mean something to someone. That's what I believe.
It's an unspoken statement, but it is communicated every moment of our lives: We want to be valued, and cared about.
It is true that we as humans make others feel very small and insignificant. But I am encouraged when I get in circles, where each one will write their names on a get well card, and send it to a person in their circle, who is struggling with an illness. I am sure the recipient feels valued and appreciated. If everyone was made to feel that way, what a different world this would be.
But what about those times when we feel like a lonely sparrow.
We feel alone, and unappreciated. We feel like we are the only people in this world. Jesus shared how God feels about us.
In our text, He said: "Fear not, therefore, you are of more value than many sparrows." The God that sees the sparrow that falls, is the same God, that gave us His Son, so we could have the best that He has to offer.
We are never alone, and we are a great treasure to God. When we get to feeling like we don't mean anything to anyone. We are loved by God.
We are very special to Him. When those around us, make us feel small and unimportant. We will always mean everything to Him! GP
