PROVIDENCE
Chance, accident, or luck!All is transparent and harmonious to His eye!
There is no such thing as "chance," "luck," or "accident"
I would teach you a way to be never be disappointed
God's all wise, gracious, and adorable providence!
Do we want to be rulers of the universe?
When I grumble about the weather
The nest was destroyed, and the poor bird lay bleeding and exposed!
If we were directing the affairs of our own lives
What a compassionate, gracious arrangement!
Providence is no other than God providing!
Our wisest plans and best endeavors
Everything short of Hell is mercy!
Fate, accident, chance — or SOVEREIGNTY?
I follow like a little blind child
A beautiful face — under a black mask!
When all the mysteries of Providence will be solved!
Just because He disposes all things
Even our faults, our follies and our sins!
God leading His people through the wilderness
The sovereign decrees and allotments of Your infinite wisdom!
The key to many of the painful or mysterious providences of our lives
Thank God that He has veiled the future!
Why were the old days better than these?
Thoughtful, sleepless, loving care
When we complain about the weather!
The sovereign decrees and allotments of Your infinite wisdom!
Whoever complains of seasons and weather!
Away with that guilty atheism which dethrones God from the sovereign control over His own world!
Not a single shaft can hit, till the God of love sees fit!
I am very sorry about your accident!
If I might but get the broken crumbs!
Afterwards you will understand
Little did she know, that amid the
sheaves — she would find a husband!This city has so aroused My anger and wrath!
Trust His heart — even when you can't trace His hand!
Our Father refuses to answer such questions!
Pestilence! Famine! Earthquake!
The unerring hand of infinite wisdom
And we ought to be content with that!
The height of folly, arrogance, and weakness!
Building air-castle upon air-castle!
Should it be according to your mind?
In the great mirror of eternity!
A glory, a beauty, and a sweetness
Ordering, arranging, and controlling all
All hang dependent on His powerful providence!
There is no 'chance' in God's world
He does not come in the sunshine only!
The world's pleasures are often curses in disguise!
Dark and mysterious providences
You are the one who has done this!
We are to submit to His holy will
Each apparently capricious turn in life's way
He opens His bountiful hand — and my needs are met!
Afterwards you will understand!
You do not know what a day may bring forth!
We know not what this day may bring forth
Wars, pestilences, earthquakes?
There are many devices in a man's heart
Submit to the appointments of our Maker!
"Chance," "luck," or "accident"
All the mysteries of providence
Hush your insane murmurs, O worm!
One gracious purpose of mercy!
Beware of that practical atheism!
Whence, then, this loveliness, this charm?
Oh it is a sweet and holy life!
Mapped, arranged, and provided for
Every thread in the web of life
Oh it is a sweet and holy life!
All our care, forethought, and caution
His providences may change, His heart cannot.
When God thwarts, afflicts, and mortifies us
Why, then, these fears? Why this distrust?
Being cast like a weed on the bewildering stream!
The design of the divine Artist
Long, habitual, and uninterrupted mercies?
Should it be according to your mind?
All things, all creatures, and all events!
Infinite wisdom directs every event!
All dropping from the outstretched, munificent hand!
What the little bird said to Luther
Our proper enjoyment of every earthly blessing
