Here are some more quiz questions one by one. . .  :D


'For the resolutions of the just depend rather on the grace of God than on their own wisdom; and in Him they always put their trust, whatever they take in hand.

For man proposes, but God disposes; neither is the way of man in his own hands.'


Who wrote the above?

This statement is often shortened to 'Man proposes, God disposes.'


A different translation:

'Just men depend on the grace of God rather than on their own wisdom in keeping their resolutions.

In Him they confide every undertaking, for man, indeed, proposes but God disposes, and God's way is not man's.'
