I love how Newton connects God's sovereignty to the cross. Most of the time our doubts, fears, and sins fall into one of two categories: either we doubt God's sovereignty, or we doubt his goodness. At the cross, and in this quote, we see both of them together. What a comfort it is to know that the sovereign hand that guides every moment of our lives is the same hand that was nailed to the cross for us!
"As to daily occurrences, it is best to believe that a daily portion of comforts and crosses, each one the most suitable to our case, is adjusted and appointed by the hand which was once nailed to the cross for us."
