Are not two sparrows sold for a small coin? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Fatherโ€™s knowledge. Even all the hairs of your head are counted. So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. Matthew 10:29-31

Matthew 10:29-31


In a world that can feel overwhelming and impersonal, God’s love is deeply personal. Every tiny detail of our lives matters to our Heavenly Father. From the smallest sparrow to the number of hairs on our head, we are seen, known, and cherished.

Nothing escapes the Fatherโ€™s care,
Neither sparrows nor a single hair.
