Infinite wisdom directs every event!

(from Dagg's "Manual of Theology")

"And we know that God causes everything to work
together for the good of those who love God and
are called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28

It should fill us with joy, that God's infinite
wisdom guides the affairs of the world.

Many of its events are shrouded in darkness and
mystery, and inextricable confusion sometimes
seems to reign. Often wickedness prevails, and
God seems to have forgotten the creatures that
He has made.

Our own path through life is dark and devious,
and beset with difficulties and dangers.

How full of consolation is the doctrine, that
infinite wisdom directs every event, brings
order out of confusion, and light out of darkness,
and, to those who love God, causes all things,
whatever be their present aspect and apparent
tendency, to work together for good.

"And we know that God causes everything to work
together for the good of those who love God and
are called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28
