Episode 12 -- Abandonment to Divine Providence Bk 1, ch 2.2 -- Faith Recognizes Divine Operation

If God's action is always at work in the world, how do we recognize it? By faith. Faith, St Paul says, is the assurance of things hoped for and the conviction of things unseen. God's actions are unseen, invisible. Faith allows us to be sure that despite appearances, God is at work in this and that situation. Even when others mean to hurt us, God can bring good out of the situation.
