Do we matter? We fear we don't. This is Max Locato. In Luke 12, 6, Jesus says,

Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies, and not one of them is forgotten before God?

One penny would buy two sparrows, two pennies, however, would buy five. The seller threw in the fifth

for free. Society has its share of fifth sparrows, indistinct souls who feel dispensable,

disposable, worth little. It's time to deal with the fear of not mattering,

the fear of insignificance.

Why does God love you so much?

You are his idea.

And God has only good ideas.

For we are God's masterpiece.

He has created us anew in Christ Jesus

so we can do the good things he planned for us

long ago.
