explain behind a frowning providence he hides a smiling face
Answers
Answer:
The phrase quickly entered popular parlance, but Cowper's reverent and thoughtful understanding was quickly lost. When he described God's ways as mysterious, Cowper was not shrugging his shoulders in resignation, but expressing a Christian confidence.
Cowper's words should encourage believers troubled by the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina, or by any great distress. "Judge not the Lord by feeble sense," Cowper instructs, "but trust Him for His grace." Our confidence: "Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face."
Those words define Christian truth and Gospel courage in the face of what truly appears as a "frowning providence." Cowper did not deny the reality of evil and suffering, but he did deny the victory of evil and suffering. We dare not doubt God's smiling face.
