The Word

To number (ἀριθμέω arithmeō)

But even the very hairs of your head have all been numbered. Therefore, do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows. (Lk 12:7)

ἀλλὰ καὶ αἱ τρίχες τῆς κεφαλῆς ὑμῶν πᾶσαι ἠρίθμηνται. μὴ φοβεῖσθε· πολλῶν στρουθίων διαφέρετε.

Sed et capilli capitis vestri omnes numerati sunt. Nolite ergo timere: multis passeribus pluris estis vos.

Divine calculation covers all matters that are the subject of our anxiety and uncertainty. Divine Providence is not an insurance company. We all remain in the loving gaze of the Father, which defines our value and gives meaning to life.
