God thunders wondrously with his voice; he does great things that we cannot comprehend.
Job 37:5
God’s providence is
Heidelberg Catechism #28
his almighty and ever present power,
whereby, as with his hand, he still upholds
heaven and earth and all creatures,
and so governs them that
leaf and blade,
rain and drought,
fruitful and barren years,
food and drink,
health and sickness,
riches and poverty,
indeed, all things,
come to us not by chance
but by his fatherly hand.
If there is one single molecule in this universe running around loose, totally free of God’s sovereignty, then we have no guarantee that a single promise of God will ever be fulfilled.
R.C. Sproul
There is no maverick molecule if God is sovereign.
R.C. Sproul
God’s works of providence are, his most holy, wise, and powerful preserving and governing all his creatures and all their actions.
Westminster Shorter Catechism #11
It is all about God’s glory. Even in my own life… I thank God that my mom died giving birth to me. I thank God that my step mother died when I was eight or nine. I thank God that my dad died when I was twelve. Because I look back and go ‘God I totally see why you did that. It caused me to grow so much close to you, and depend on you…’
Francis Chan
