"The rules of navigation never navigated a ship. The rules of architecture never built a house." ― Thomas Reid Topic(s): Faith Tags: navigation, never, rules More From Thomas Reid "And, if we have any evidence that the wisdom which formed the plan is in the man, we have the very same evidence, that the power which executed it is in him also." "Every indication of wisdom, taken from the effect, is equally an indication of power to execute what wisdom planned." More In Faith "You often feel that your prayers scarcely reach the ceiling; but, oh, get into this humble spirit by considering how good the Lord is, and how evil you all are, and then prayer will mount on wings of faith to heaven."― Charles Simeon "If you will investigate all the Indian troubles, you will find that there is something wrong of this nature at the bottom of all of them, something relating to the supplies, or else a tardy and broken faith on the part of the general government."― George Crook "Blues are the songs of despair, but gospel songs are the songs of hope."― Mahalia Jackson
