 It is believed that God dictates all that occurs in the world. However, as humans, we lack the ability and consistency to shape the future in such a methodical manner. This is primarily due to our lack of wisdom and knowledge, which is evident when one examines our imperfections. God's will extends to every corner of the earth and ultimately serves to bring Him honor. In God's eyes, action and intention are inseparable, and He stands alone as the ultimate being.

This is the reason why God orchestrates all things according to His purposes, in order to bring Himself glory and for us to experience the benefits of His beauty and pleasure. We are seen by God, from the beginning to the end, through the lens of His wisdom and knowledge. This understanding is revealed to us in this life through a meticulously structured and dependable working in the beings He has created. God has celestial representatives who ensure that the particles in the universe align to create the perfect amount of beauty at the precise moments, for both our enjoyment and His glorification. Every event in the course of our lives holds a purpose, as it is a product of God's original creation and ongoing providence. We place our trust in His word, which remains a constant reality in our lives.

The divine has a multitude of methods that are rooted in the realm of creation. God, being a deity of theatricality, offers individuals visual cues to differentiate between those chosen by Him and those who defy Him and lack mercy. Every action that God carries out in our lives ultimately serves our benefit and showcases His majesty, including the calamities we face and our own transgressions and vulnerabilities. Through this, we come to understand the incomprehensibility of God, as His true nature eludes our understanding. However, His teachings are reliable and serve as the sole foundation on which our faith can be sustained on a daily basis.

He consistently fulfills his promises and our abilities are solely determined by what he grants us. This is the unwavering faith we possess, believing in the reality of the object of our faith. Thus, we have a faith that cannot be unsuccessful. Although it may be modest in size, it is rewarded due to the genuine trust we place in Christ's incarnation. Our trust is directed towards the grace that will be unveiled to us. Consequently, we are promised a reward that is not merely superficial. This promise is bestowed upon us through the divine embodiment of the Word, descending from the heavens. The ancient prophetic words, which foresaw and ordained future events, are the foundation of our hope in the Incarnate Word. We eagerly anticipate final salvation, while retrospectively gazing upon the ultimate triumph, knowing it will secure our eternal rewards. Our experiences in this world are a glimpse of the greater fulfillment that awaits us in heaven.
