Matthew 10:31
So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
from Fear God Alone, Matthew 10:26-31
What it says

They are worth more than many sparrows, so fear should not rule them.

What it is doing

Their value rests in the Father’s regard.

In context

26So do not be afraid of them. For there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known. 27What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops. 28Do 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. 29Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father. 30And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
