GPP 24: Your Needs Supplied

Absent God’s will, not even sparrows die;
What hazards then must His own children fear?
If the needs of birds He fails not supply
How much less likely His workers down here?
If God knows how many hairs on your head,
Do you think He’s unaware your needs?
Then why be afraid, or why do you dread?
Be fearless, in the doing of good deeds!
For clothes or food, waste no time in pursuit
When more vital goals languish untended;
Success in serving God’s measured in fruit—
Salvation of souls, saved and attended!
Your Maker knows the basics you require;
Trust in Him to furnish what you desire!

Promise Made: Matthew 10:29-31 (Jesus speaking
“ ‘Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father. And even the very hairs of your
head are numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are worth many sparrows.’ “

“For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)

“That if you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord’, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)
