So, I was trying to think of what to write, and I don't think I've ever written about sparrows.
Sparrows?
Yes, sparrows, Old World Sparrows, New World Sparrows, not to be confused with this, Spearow.
Jesus has something to say about sparrows (presumably Old World Sparrows).
“I tell you, my friends, do not fear those who kill the body, and after that have nothing more that they can do. But I will warn you whom to fear; fear him who, after he has killed, has authority to cast into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him! Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And not one of them is forgotten before God. Why, even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not; you are of more value than many sparrows.” (Luke 12:4-7).
Now, thinking about this, I think we should be much more concerned about, you know, death and hell. I mean, spiritual death is much worse than physical death.
But, I appreciate the fact that I am more important than sparrows. Especially, if not one of them are forgotten before God, this would mean, no matter how distant I feel from God (DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL).
