Reflections On The Scripture: This verse from the book of Numbers indicates that God knows us by name, He knows our lineage, and he values the role we each have to play in His divine plan. Shelumiel, the son of Zurishaddai, was entrusted with leadership over the tribe of Simeon - there was a specific place for him in the greater story. So it is with each of us. No matter how small or insignificant we may feel at times, God has uniquely positioned us, He knows us deeply and has designed a role for us in His kingdom. Let it encourage us today that God sees us and has appointed meaningful work in His grand masterpiece for each and every one of us.
