Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.
MATTHEW 10:29

The Puritans gave particular attention to expounding the wonders of God’s special providence because of its deep pastoral significance. They were persuaded that few things are as encouraging and uplifting as the realization that God governs all creation in the interest of His people. The Puritans encouraged people to see God’s special providence as an effectual remedy for fear, despair, anxiety, and numerous other ailments of the soul.
