Matthew 10:30

God's loveProtection and safetyWorry and anxietyComfort

28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

29 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 all numbered.

31 So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

32 Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father in heaven.
