Heidelberg Catechism Q&A 27

Q. What do you understand by the providence of God?

A. Providence is the almighty and ever present power of God by which he upholds, as with his hand, heaven and earth and all creatures, and so rules them that leaf and blade, rain and drought, fruitful and lean years, food and drink, health and sickness, prosperity and property—all things, in fact, come to us not by chance but from his fatherly hand.

I can tell you through hard won personal experience...it takes time to find the person who understands the way your hair moves and makes it look good, and that person is very very rarely your wife and almost never an attachment to a vacuum cleaner.
