The Third Week of Lent – Friday

LUKE 12:7

This is one of those verses that feels like hyperbole — every hair on our heads counted by God, really? What if, for today, you carried this possibility with you? What if you imagined today that God knows and values everything about you and about everyone you encounter? Notice how this impacts your perception of yourself and others.

Lord of all, aren’t you too busy to pay attention to every detail of our lives? It is all
but impossible for us to believe that we, and every creature, are that important to you.
And yet, you hold nothing back from us, not even your Son. So we abide in the promise that we are more precious to you than we could ever hope or imagine. Amen.
