Matthew 10:29 - Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will.

In Jesus' day, sparrows were sold to the poor to be used as sacrifices. They were considered practically worthless (one copper coin would purchase two of them), yet Jesus points out that God's providence extends even to them. How much more, then, does it extend to those whom God deems of far greater value; the point Jesus makes in the next two verses.

Matt. 10:30, 31 - But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.
