The Punctuality of Providence
Genesis 16:13-14
And she called the name of the LORD that spoke to her, You God see me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that sees me?…


We wonder at the smooth working of the machinery for feeding a great city; and how, day by day, the provisions come at the right time, and are parted out among hundreds of thousands of homes. But we seldom think of the punctual love, the perfect knowledge, the profound wisdom which cares for us all, and is always in time with its gifts.

(A. Maclaren, D. D.)
