Godโ Sees You: Finding Comfort in Divine Awareness
September 27, 2025, 1:00 p.m. MDT – In a world oftenโข characterized by chaos and loss, a โคmessageโ of profound comfort is set to be delivered this Sunday on The Spoken Word, a weekly broadcast of the โคTabernacle Choir at Temple Square. This week’s message, the 5,011th episode of the long-running program, draws upon the teachings of Jesus Christ toโฃ remind listeners of God’s intimate and unwavering awareness of each individual โคlife.
The message centers on a passage from Matthewโ 10, where Jesus illustrates God’s care through the simple image of โa sparrow. “Are not two sparrows sold for aโฃ farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father,” He taught, emphasizing that even the most seemingly insignificant creature is known and valued by God. He continued,”The very hairs ofโข yourโ head are all numbered. Fear yeโ not, โฆ โye areโข of more value than many sparrows” (Matthew 10:30-31).
This isn’t simply a statement of โdivine knowledge, but a powerful reassurance. God isn’t โฃdistant or detached; โHe is intimately involved in the detailsโข of our lives. If we allow Him, the message suggests, He will guide us to be in the right place, at the right โtime, to offer help and compassion to others.
The speaker, Derrickโ Porter, illustrates this principle with a deeply personal โคstory. He recountsโ the sudden loss of โคhisโ sister and theโ immediate outpouring of โฃsupport from their neighbors. In a community tragically familiar with loss – a neighborhood where over a dozen families had experienced the death of a child – neighbors instinctively offeredโค food, flowers, and comfort, becomingโ tangible expressionsโ of God’s love โin a โฃmoment of profound grief.
this story underscores โthe power ofโ empathy and โฃthe importance of community,born from a shared understanding of life’s fragility and โthe need forโ connection. It’s a โคtestament to how God โworks through others to provide solaceโฃ and support when it’s โneeded most.
