The words about sparrows are a strong statement about God. The sparrow is a common bird of no great distinction. Yet not one sparrow is forgotten in God’s sight. God knows even the least and smallest of creatures. If the humble sparrow is cared for by God, how much are we cherished by God?
God knows the smallest detail of our lives. In the larger scheme of things, this is incredible. If God the Creator is transcendent above all things, worthy of reverence and awe, how can He pay attention to each individual in this crowded world?
Yet Jesus assures us that God is a caring Father close to us and caring for each one. If that is so, we can trust ourselves to God without hesitation.+
