1 Chronicles 4-8: Insignificant or Not

It's easy for us to mistakenly think that we are the center of the universe, especially when we're young.  Perhaps a prerequisite for turning twenty-one would be to read these chapters in Chronicles that list all the descendants of the tribes of Israel.  Some of the tribes such as Judah and Levi kept very detailed records of their descendants.  Others like Naphtali were condensed to only one sentence: 
The sons of Naphtali:  Jahziel, Guni, Jezer and Shillem—the descendants of Bilhah - 1 Chronicles 7:13 NIV

While the names of  most of the sons of Naphtali are lost to history, does that mean they were not important, that their lives were insignificant as opposed to those from the other tribes?  Or, are our names just names.  Are we part of something, this history of creation, that is bigger than any name.

One thing we can be sure of,  we are not the center of the universe.  That belongs to God alone, but we are important to him, he is aware of every event that takes place in our entire lives.  Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care. - Matthew 10:29 NIV
