God's Providential Care of Children
Exodus 2:5-6
And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side…


I remember reading a story of a baby — a wee child — that travelled by railroad. Away whirled the coach very fast; but it soon knocked against something, and all were thrown out — men, women, mothers, and babes, some were pitched here, some there; heads were broken, hands cut off. In the midst of the confusion, a voice was heard crying — "Where is my baby? Oh I my dear baby! I cannot find him anywhere. Did nobody see my sweet baby? What shall I do?" One man lost his leg, another his hand, another his eye; but the mother did not mind them, but was going about, wringing her hands, and crying, "Where is my baby?" After much search for it, and for a great while in vain, at length a man went over to a place where there was a bandbox, he took up the bandbox, and what do you think he found under it? The baby, fast asleep! Now, if God takes care of babies, surely He would take care of all little children.
