God Knows Your Name

Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will. But the very hairs of your head are numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows. Matt. 10:29-31

Everyone of our hairs is counted! How can that be?

I remember during on of my cancer battles, I went to the beach with my family. I loved watching the waves continue to roll in to shore. Standing with my feet on the edge of the water, I was awed by the incredible vastness of the ocean, extending out as far and wide as my eyes could see; the horizon meeting the sky. The world was so huge. Suddenly, I felt so exceptionally small and insignificant in its scope, yet profoundly humbled that the God who created it all loved me and knew my name.

I think that during cancer treatments and battles we can feel so alone at times. Unless a person has been through it, they cannot truly relate, and even then, each of us has different thoughts, emotions and experiences. To me, it is comforting to know that a God so infinitely wise and immense bends His head to watch over me and leans His ears to hear my cry.

Know today that God knows your very name, how you feel, what you are facing tomorrow, and like a loving Father, He is bending down to listen, love and touch His children...to touch you.

Praying His presence is upon you!

Mary
