Interesting quotes from George Washington

In 1778 George Washington wrote the following that seems to apply to what is happening to our country today. "Providence has heretofore taken us up when all other means and hope seemed to be departing from us, in this I will confide." In
1780, he declared the following:

"providence, to whom we are infinitely more indebted than we are to our own wisdom, or our own exertions, has always displayed its power and goodness, when clouds and thick darkness seemed ready to overwhelm us. The hour is now come when we stand much in need of another manifestation of its bounty however little we deserve it."

George Washington believed God was the driving force behind the success of the Colonies in the Revolutionary War. We just have to return to God and ask for his guidance, forgiveness and intervention to return us to what he gave us through our Founding Fathers.
