Hair

A hair in the head is worth two in the brush.  ~Oliver Herford

Most of us are concerned with how we look and that includes our hair-the cut and style. 

There are blondes, brunettes, auburns and jet black. Some have short pixie cuts and others have long flowing tresses. There is curly and straight. Some lose their hair and are now sporting the balding look. Some have their natural color while other of us chose our color from a bottle. And most of us while we age are showing more gray in our hair.

Today was the day that I finally was able to go and get a cut and style and she did an amazing job! While I was in the chair allowing her to work her magic I was thinking about what to write in my blog and hair came to my mind. We wash and condition and blow dry and curl. We straighten and crimp and color and perm. There are a lot of different products that we try one day at a time or use on our hair-shampoos, conditioners, hair spray, and mousse. I can't imagine how much money is spent in the hair industry.

 But through it all it still brought my thought back to one thing-God knows exactly how many hairs are on my head.

Luke 12:7 

"But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows."

  It is comforting and reassuring and even thrilling to know that my Lord cares enough about me to know even the littlest details-he knows the number of hairs on my head (and let me say that right now I have been losing a lot of hair so it has been changing frequently and He still knows!)

If you feel that no one cares or that you aren't special-think again-God created you and knows every detail about you and He cares!
