. Sovereign, supreme disposal. By J.C. Philpott. . And God placed all things under his feet, and appointed him to be head over everything. Ephesians 1.22. How vast, how numerous, how complicated are the various events and circumstances which attend the Christian here below as he travels onward to his heavenly home. But if all things are put under Jesus' feet, then there cannot be a single circumstance over which He has not supreme control. Everything in providence and everything in grace are alike subject to His disposal. There is not a trial, a temptation, an affliction of body or soul, a loss, a cross, a painful bereavement, a vexation, a grief, a disappointment, a case, state or condition which is not put under Jesus' feet. He has sovereign, supreme disposal over all events and circumstances. As possessed of infinite knowledge, He sees them. As possessed of infinite wisdom, He can manage them. And as possessed of infinite power, He can dispose and direct them for our good and His own glory. How much trouble and anxiety would we save ourselves, could we firmly believe, realize, and act on this? If we could see by the eye of faith that every foe and every fear, every difficulty and perplexity, every trying or painful circumstance, every looked-for or unlooked-for event, every source of care, whether at present or in prospect, are all at His sovereign disposal. What a load of anxiety and care would be often taken off our shoulders!
