Like the picture of the little sparrow, you see here,
God is watching over you and cares for you. He has plans for you.
Taken nearby Caesarea Phillippi at the foot of Mt. Hermon in the Golan Heights. Remember, not to worry. His eye is on you as on the Sparrow, "Yet not one of them is forgotten in God's sight" (Luke 12:6).
The purpose of this book is to assist and help the reader strengthen his/her faith and trust in Jesus Christ, the author and finisher of all who have a simple and enduring love of God. My hope is from your "testing of the spirits," you will see that God's organizational plan is perfect and is given for our edification and instruction. His timeline to the end of days is right on track.
Like the sparrow, God has a special plan for you, as it is written:
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord,
plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give
you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11)
If you know about Jeremiah, it would seem as if our Lord had left him and had forsaken him. But God was hidden in the background, watching him like He watches the sparrow.
The reader is about to embark on an adventure with no doubt bumps along the road. Please, whenever a spot in this book hits hard against your traditions, education, or social surrounding, just keep on reading to the end. Trust in God. As it is written, "In God I have put my trust; I will not fear. What can flesh do to me?" (Psalm 56:4). Please, enjoy your journey!
