Daniel 8 (KJV)
In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.
And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was at Shushan in the palace, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in a vision, and I was by the river of Ulai.
Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.

Hebrews 1:1-3 (KJV)
God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
Jesus is Creator
Proverbs 8:22-31

I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

Judge not, that ye be not judged.
For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

(1) His Eye Is On The Sparrow
The hymn “His eye is on the sparrow” was written to encourage all who are some times tempted to be discouraged. Circumstances, sorrow, or trial come upon us and we can lose the joy and courage that should be ours.
This hymn was inspired by a couple, the Doolittles of Elmira, New York. For twenty years, Mrs. Doolittle had been confined to bed as an invalid. Her husband, a partial invalid, managed his business from a wheelchair.
One day, the evangelist Dr. W. Stillman Martin and his wife came to visit them. Together they had written the beautiful hymn “God Will Take Care of You,” with Mrs. Martin writing the words and Dr. Martin the music.
The Martins were deeply impressed with the joyful spirit that the Doolittles maintained in spite of their adversity. “What is the secret of your joy?”, Dr. Martin asked. “His eye is on the sparrow,” Mrs. Doolittle replied, “and I know He watches me.”
