Thoughtful Wisdom
“Someone has said that in war Providence is on the side of the strongest regiments. And I have noticed that Providence is on the side of clear heads and honest hearts; and wherever a man walks faithfully in the ways that God has marked out for him, Providence, as the Christian says, –luck as the heathen says–will be on that man’s side. In the long run you will find that God’s providence is in favor of those who keep His laws, and against those that break them.” – Henry Ward Beecher
“Chance is a nickname for Providence.” – Sebastian Chamfort
“Behind the dim unknown, Standeth God within the shadow, keeping watch above his own.” – James Russell Lowell
“Providence has at all times been my only dependence, for all other resources seem to have failed us.” – George Washington
“Darkness in the pathway of man’s life is but the shadow of God’s providence, by the great Sun of Wisdom cast thereon; and what is dark below is light in Heaven.” – John Greenleaf Whittier
