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. While visiting the Chicago Botanical Gardens I learned that there were some cacti that only bloom one day a year and that day was projected to be the next day. So the first place I went the next morning was the desert greenhouse and there, along with a good number of other visitors, I saw the showy blooms. But while everyone else was looking at the big blooms I happened to notice a little ways away this small little cactus, only about 6 inches high, with the smallest little bloom. I thought it was so striking, the pink flower against the white and green of the plant. Sometimes we see our self as this little plant, unnoticed, unimportant and of little value. But like this little plant you have made us beautiful. No matter how small you may feel sometimes remember that you are of great value to our loving father.
Prayer Loving Father Remind us that you see us as valuable and love us so much even when we feel of little value. Help us to see the beauty in all those around us, especially those the world considers unimportant. Make our actions reflect the love you have for us for those who need to know how much you love and value them. Amen
