A priest friend of mine is fond of reminding, when things look bleak and I start getting pessimistic and cynical: "God is in control".
Ah, but we Calvinists would fully agree. In fact, we insist upon this point. As did Augustine.
So many people fret over their actions and their control over events. Once one recognizes and accepts God's total sovereignty over His children and the unfolding of His plan for mankind, life is less worrying.

Amen, GWB.
"God is in control."
There are no sweeter words of comfort.
