“At that time: So many people were crowding together that they were trampling one another underfoot. Jesus began to speak, first to his disciples, “Beware of the leaven–that is, the hypocrisy–of the Pharisees. “There is nothing concealed that will not be revealed, nor secret that will not be known. Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered behind closed doors will be proclaimed on the housetops. I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body but after that can do no more. I shall show you whom to fear. Be afraid of the one who after killing has the power to cast into Gehenna; yes, I tell you, be afraid of that one. Are not five sparrows sold for two small coins? Yet not one of them has escaped the notice of God. Even the hairs of your head have all been counted. Do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows.” —Luke 12:1-7

When I compare this world to the other world, one seems like a dream while the other is so very real. This world is the dream, and the next is more real than this one ever seemed. Upon my return, the Lord drew my attention to the flapping of wings. Birds, bees, and all flying creatures. I somehow knew God recorded each flap of their wings. Every hair, counted, every heartbeat, of every person is known by the Lord.

If God is so aware of every little detail of the life He created, then our only fear should be our choosing to live this life in a way other than how He deemed for us to live it. Imagine the abundance of love that would make One wish to count every hair, guard every step, and feel every heartbeat. Imagine truly understanding that the God who created you loves you to that depth.
