God’s Providential Care of All Creation

What does it really mean to say that “everything happens for a reason”? For the Christian, this is far more than a vague belief in fate or coincidence. It points us to the comforting truth of God’s providence—that the sovereign God is actively sustaining and directing every detail of His creation according to His wise, good, and loving purposes.

From the seemingly insignificant choices of everyday life to the great events that shape history, nothing falls outside His sovereign care. Even when we cannot see how the pieces fit together, Scripture assures us that God is working all things toward His purposes and, ultimately, for His glory and the good of His people . . .
