| Summary | "Submission to Divine Providence in the Death of Children" by Philip Doddridge is a poignant sermon published during the early 18th century. This reflective work primarily addresses the sorrow and grief experienced by parents who lose a child, emphasizing the need for spiritual resilience and acceptance of divine will. Within its pages, Doddridge presents a heartfelt exploration of mourning and the importance of submitting to God's providence amid personal loss. The sermon details Doddridge's own experience with the death of his young daughter, imparting profound insights into the nature of grief and divine purpose. He draws on biblical examples, illustrating how figures like Job and the Shunammite mother responded to tragedy with faith and affirmation that "it is well." Through this discourse, Doddridge comforts grieving parents by urging them to see their loss in the context of a loving God who ultimately has control over life and death. He invites readers to find peace through reflection on their relationship with God, asserting that submission to divine providence can lead to spiritual growth and hope for the eternal well-being of their children.
