“Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?
Yet not one of them will fall to the ground
apart from the will of your Father.”
Matthew 10:29 NIV
In my whole life I have never ever had any desire to ride a motorcycle. After my cousin had a minor accident, which caused major injuries, riding a motorcycle was pretty much out of the question for me. It always amazed me that anyone would want to put their lives in such imminent danger.
But a couple of years ago I had a crazy idea to give it a try. After failing a basic-rider course, and then hours and hours of practice, here I am with a motorcycle license. I still don’t quite understand how all that happened.
Every time I ride, I remember that God holds my very life and breath in the palms of His hands. If He ordains even the lifespan of a sparrow, surely His eye is on me! To Him I am much more valuable than a sparrow. And so are you!
“And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.”
Matthew 10:30-31 NIV
