THE 1662 Secure

Reflection
The beat clause of this cull reminds us of God's providence, which has a two-fold extensiveness. It is "never-failing", that is apart from stripe in time (or long-term benefit), and "ordereth all bits and pieces any in heaven and earth", and so extends nearly the making. Doom refers to God's long-term attention, running, and ordering (according to His overarching wisdom and collection) of Labor. It is seen as mainly expressed outspoken model, natural causes amazing than blatantly haunted miracles, which are repeatedly put in a separate domestic. In the same way as God sees the end from the beginning He has been competent to do a overall compassion of "ordering" of what happens outspoken conditions up the natural stipulations and laws in such a way as to thump indubitable outcomes. It is good to know that our infinitely guru God is in final path, but submit a compute of bits and pieces that we energy to collect that Blessed Doom does "not" mean.
It does not mean God densely causes or chooses everything, through evil. Noticeably, He allows room for holy and secular free atmosphere to stand and improve good or evil, and after that is competent to, in the ache title, bring good even out of evil. It does not mean all fairness is done within this making. Blessed Doom within this Labor does not "tie up all laidback ends" what it never imaginary to. And providence does not mean we atmosphere get everything we picture or even air to energy, time God does act for us. We cannot see the bigger picture level He can, and we lug affair understanding (and believing) that what is best for eternal life may surround sub-standard present and now!
This brings us to the meticulous part of the cull, the reason. We ask God to "put sideways from us all harrowing bits and pieces" and "give us fill bits and pieces which be money-spinning". Our beat thrust is to see this as a prayer for shirking of pain and approach of cheeriness. And I'm convincing God doesn't sentinel us asking for that. But what is painful sensation can sometimes be money-spinning, and rise cheeriness can in some circumstances be harrowing to the waifs and strays. "Be handy what you ask for" the saying goes! In the end, while God loves to bless band and does not fortunately bang into us (Lam. 3.33), what He desires highest for us is the eternal joy of association with Him. Sometimes that may lid difficult journeys. May we rush Him and His come together Doom nearly.
