What are you worth? How often do you think about this thought? How many times have you asked yourself about our value to God. It’s something many of us struggle to see is our value to God. The scripture I read this morning talks about how God takes care of the birds of the air and how much more He will care for us because He places such high value on us. (Matthew 6:26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?) It might do all of us good to spend some time watching birds. That’s what our Lord told us to do. If not every day, then at least every now and then we need to take the time to observe and remind ourselves how well our feathered friends are cared for. They literally do not know where their next meal is coming from, yet, I have personally never seen a bird sitting on a tree branch with a “will work for food sign,” having a nervous breakdown due to worry, or losing it’s feathers because things aren’t going it’s way. The point is really simple. Are you not worth more than a bird? Regardless of how you might feel about yourself right now, God still sees great value in your life. When we start to trust God’s Word, we will begin to feel that value. Pastor Don [image: image.png]
