“Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered!” Matthew 10:29-30
Many events appear to us as accidental and trifling. But the truth is, that not one is accidental, not one is trifling! Every minuscule circumstance is ordered by the Lord, and forms a link in the chain of His unerring providence! Not a hair of our head falls, but by His appointment! It remains our duty to mark His providential dealings with care, and improve them with diligence.
Let any whose minds have been opened to spiritual realities, and whose souls have been liberated from spiritual bondage, look back and see the way by which they have been brought to the obtaining of these marvelous mercies; and they shall find such a mysterious chain of causes and effects as will furnish them with matter of astonishment to all eternity! Wonderful are the ways whereby God accomplishes His own eternal counsels!
“Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments, and His paths beyond tracing out!” Romans 11:33
