Chapter 32 verses 14 and following talk about the Providence of God. Randal huber, a protestant minister, tells this story about God's providence: "While I was a full-time student in seminary my wife, Susan, was a full-time student in college. We both worked low paying, part-time jobs so things were financially tight. Nevertheless, God always provided. One of my favorite saying during this time was, 'He feeds His birds doesn’t He?'
One day when our bills were due I was walking outside our apartment on a windy day and a five dollar bill blew by my feet. I reached down and picked it up and prayed, “Thank you Lord”. Another time our bank statement showed a large deposit. I asked Susan about it but neither one of us knew how the money got there. None of our friends or relatives knew our account number. I called the bank to tell them there had been a mistake. They assured that there was no mistake. Needless to say, we were dumbfounded. Somehow God mysteriously provided what we needed precisely when we needed it."
Indeed, God's Providence is always with us.
