Simple and clear. Leahy outlines the greatness and comfort of having a God who truly is sovereign. Using the image of the hand of God and all that it does, Leahy walks through the biblical evidence and the resulting doctrine.

A wonderful collection of essays from a Scottish, reformed Presbyterian Church pastor. It's been years since I've read it but still felt the need to give it a good review. It's a Banner of Truth book, so you know, it's badass!

One can hear the voice of a generation that is sadly passing in these meditations. There is much to encourage and instruct in here, but the recommendations are a little overdone for such a basic book. Also, a few of the political views expressed seem more informed by the BBC than a Biblical approach to the subject.

But. Prof Leahy's warmth of heart and his very evident familiarity with all of Scripture (and a vast range of reformed writings) still make this a profitable an edifying read.

Liked it.

This is a must read. Frederick Leahy is fast becoming one of my favorite Authors, all his book are well written, biblical and very clear.
