Live Unbroken In God's Hand of Providence

It is very easy as a child of God to live and go about your daily affairs, without believing in God's providence and without knowing He directs all things according to the counsel of His will. You can go about your daily life without the slightest regard for God’s intimate personal involvement in what happens in your life. You can get up each day and pursue whatever responsibilities you have, all the while presumptuously taking for granted that you are even alive and that you are being cared for by God. You can live a defeated and anxious life, not remembering that He cares about every minor detail of your daily existence, and He is managing it all perfectly. This is why it is crucial for you to follow David’s lead as he was, once again, a hair’s breadth away from being murdered by King Saul in Psalm 57:1-2. David cries out, “Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me, for in you my soul takes refuge; in the shadow of your wings I will take refuge, till the storms of destruction pass by. I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me.”
