During my brother-in law's illness, one day while I was thinking on him, the Lord reminded me of how He takes care of the tiny sparrow, then I was inspired to write the Tiny Sparrow. be encouraged as you read it, and remember the Lord will provide, and take care of you!!
The tiny sparrow whistles through the trees, without a thought of what to eat! Without a place to rest! Yet several times a day, the tiny sparrow has sufficient food to eat, and protection from predators. The tiny sparrow even finds herself a nest where she may lay her young.
In contrast, you sometimes worry about daily provisions and the necessities of life. Jesus responded to these concerns in Matthew 6:31 which says, " Therefore take no thought saying, what shall we eat? or what shall we drink? or wherewithal shalt we be clothed? " You must understand that worrying destroys your good health, it interrupts your ability to be productive. Worrying also causes you to treat others in a negative way! Yes, it also prohibits your ability to trust God! Unlike the tiny sparrow, in the midst of difficult times, during times of despair, when the Doctors report says you only have a few months to live! The times when you are beaten down by the cares of this life, you have a tendency to fret and worry about your condition, concerning the situations around you. Jesus said in Matthew 10:29 " Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? And one of them shall not fall on the ground without the Father,"
No matter what you are going through at this very moment, God your Father is aware of it, and you are of great value to Him. He is with you, and will not leave you. Understand that Abba Father promise to supply everything that you need. He will heal your body, and make you whole again. Abba Father will restore your joy however, there is something you must do. You have to believe! believe? Yes believe, that there is a seed of faith inside of you, and everytime you believe, that faith begins to stir and grow. With your obedience to the word of God, you receive what Abba Father says you shall have.
You actually become like the tiny sparrow when you make a conscious decision, to stop worrying and choose to trust Abba Father, to meet your daily needs, and to live contented, with what He has provided for you. I challenge you today to put your faith to the test, and walk in total obedience to the word of God. Maintaining your stand, not to be moved by your circumstances, nor your situations. Instead-believing and waiting for Abba Father to provide, heal and deliver you, through Jesus Christ, your Lord and Saviour! Trust Him! He is Jehovah Jireh! The Lord will provide!
