God's Value of His Own -Matthew 6: 26

Listen well to your heavenly father
for He knows what He's talking about
all that comes from His holy mouth
is all pure truth never any doubt

So look intently at all of nature
see the birds fly through the air
what do they do for their food supply?
nothing, they always get their share

None of these creatures of the wild
neither sow nor reap nor do they collect
but they trust in the great God above
whose heavenly supply does sure connect

Now God's creation of all humanity
especially Adam and Eve and their kind
they're of greatest value to the living God
so He will provide abundance you will find

So does God not love you equally
His son died for your sins to atone
coming back to take you to His home
He's promised never to leave  you alone

('Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? ')
Matthew 6: 26 (ESV)

Your poem speaks beautifully to God’s provision for us, Gordon. It’s a great comfort to know that God will supply all of our needs according to His riches and glory in Christ Jesus! Great write! :)
