People Are Sparrows Too!

Discipleship can seemingly be a lonely calling, but are we truly alone in the blur and immensity of this life? Jesus takes a simple market place scenario of His time to describe our Heavenly Father's loving attention to our every moment. This hope-filled message will come to show how much we have in common not only with a sparrow, but Christ, Himself.

    Gary, Thanks for sharing the challenge you are experiencing with your beloved friend with the paws and the meow. So glad the sermon might help. My wife and I are right there with you as we have treasured our pets down through the years. They are family and for those single or elderly are extra-special. Understood! Your loving care for such a little one (i.m.o.) is duly noted by Him. Reading your note would make me want to live in your world and that's one reason why God grants us dominion over creation to observe our care for those placed in our charge--for one day we are going to judge angels and be granted rule over people under Christ. And the training starts now with those placed under our wings of trustful care. Gary, just know that the sadness now is but a part of the happiness experienced in days gone by. And that's the deal we make when we choose to love, really love, and yes, hurt will be ours, but will fade in time with kind memories of what's been. Will you see your loved one again? Let's first make it to the trumpet call ourselves and as our Jewish friends would say, "Leave some things to God."

    Thank you Mr. Webber. I really needed this. I am going through the extremely painful loss of my9 month old cats, who has feline leukemia, and i am doing hospice with her now. I have seldom been so bonded to a kitten this way. SShe loved me so, and talked to me with very cute unusual meows, and loved jump up on my bed before i got there, purring and meowing. Snuggled nest to me. i am an old never married bachelor. My pets have been my closest friends, mu family they are.. I am crying many tears now, as my closest companion is fading away. Do you think God the Creator of the animals, will allow us to someday resurrect the dear animal friends we have lived with? If i were God, I would be very glad to have them back, in the next age. Since we will be able to transform, between spirit and physical, as the risen Jesus can, i would hope, that we, who had dear animal friends for housemates, will be able to raise our long gone animal friends so dear to us, back to life., and maybe they will be made into spirit cats, dogs, horses, birds, goats, or whatever animal pet they were. All things are possible for God Our Maker.
