Thank you. What a wonderful quote from a man who did so much to establish an early course (moral and political) for our young nation.

With this quote, I think he reminds us of our human limitations, the importance of humility, the reality that we do all that we can do when we choose to do the right thing now and leave to God the heavy lifting involved in outcomes.
