“What are God’s works of providence? God’s works of providence are his most holy, wise, and powerful preserving and governing all his creatures, and all their actions.”Westminster Shorter Catechism, # 11
“I shall most religiously believe that the finger of Providence is in it, to blind the eyes of our enemies.”
General George Washington
“Beware of murmuring and fretting under any dispensations of Providence that you meet with; remembering that nothing falls out without a wise and holy providence, which knows best what is fit and proper for you. And in all cases, even in the middle of the most afflicting incidents that happen to you, learn submission to the will of God.”
Thomas Boston
“…thanks to God, since Providence has so determined, America must raise an empire of permanent duration, supported upon the grand pillars of Truth, Freedom, and Religion, encouraged by the smiles of Justice and defended by her patriotic sons…”
General Nathanael Greene
