27.Q. What do you understand by the providence of God?
A. Providence is the almighty and ever present power of God by which He upholds,as with His hand, heaven and earth and all creatures, and so rules them that leaf and blade, rain and drought, fruitful and lean years, food and drink, health and sickness, prosperity and poverty--all things, in fact, come to us not by chance but from His fatherly hand.
28.Q. How does the knowledge of God's creation and providence help us?
A. We can be patient when things go against us, thankful when things go well, and for the future we can have good confidence in our faithful God and Father that nothing will separate us from His love. All creatures are so completely in His hand that without His will they can neither move nor be moved.

If the heart does not realize how wrong and how bitter are the results of forsaking God, then it will never remain secure against sin.

Pray that the Lord prepares the hearts of those who will hear the gospel.
AMEN!
