v.29 3. The superiority of the Father’s will is evident in all of life.

(and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.)

12: 7 4. God counts the least; surely He accounts for the more.

(and not one of them is forgotten before God.)

v.30  5.   God has purposes unknown to man.

12: 7      (But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.)

v.31  6.   The commitment of God to life is beyond human measure.

(Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.)

Ours should also be.

trusting and honoring the Creator.

It is so important to honor God as Creator.
