Trusting in God's wisdom means trusting that He has a settled purpose and plan in salvation. What would creation be without His design? Is there any fish in the sea or bird in the air left to form by chance? In every part of creation, you see God working everything by His infinite wisdom.

How could God be present controlling His creation and not be present in saving grace? Would the new creation be left to the whims of free will when divine counsel rules the old creation? Providence shows us that not even a sparrow falls without our Father's care.

Every hair on your head is numbered. God weighs our grief and tribulation with precision. Would there be a God in providence and not in grace? Would the shell be crafted with wisdom while the kernel is left to chance?

No. God knows the end from the beginning. He sees every corner-stone He laid, even the blood of His dear Son, and each chosen stone polished by His grace. From foundation to pinnacle, He knows the place of every stone in His great edifice. At the last, it will be clear that in every vessel of mercy, God did as He willed. In every part of the work of grace, He fulfilled His purpose and glorified His name.

Closing Prayer

God, as we start this day, thank You for grace that meets us right where we are. For Your glory, Amen.
