9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people to be his very own and to proclaim the wonderful deeds of the one who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
3 For by the grace given to me I ask every one of you not to think of yourself more highly than you should think, rather to think of yourself with sober judgment on the measure of faith that God has assigned each of you.
6 "Five sparrows are sold for two pennies, aren't they? Yet not one of them is forgotten in God's sight.
7 Why, even all the hairs on your head have been counted! Stop being afraid. You are worth more than a bunch of sparrows."
