How do we know that everything happens according to God's purpose?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible assures us that everything that happens is within God's sovereign plan and purpose (Ecclesiastes 3:11).

Ecclesiastes 3:11 states, 'He hath made everything beautiful in His time.' This verse reassures us that God's timing and purposes are perfect, and even events that seem tragic or chaotic can be viewed through the lens of God's sovereignty. As believers, we understand that our lives and all occurrences are orchestrated by the sovereign hand of God, leading to an ultimate good that may not always be immediately visible. This belief is fundamental in Reformed theology and is embraced within the framework of God’s eternal plan.
