Trivia.... What is the origin of the underlined portion of this saying? "Good Lord willing and the Creek don't rise".

"Good Lord willing and the Creek don't rise".

Oh my goodness. I don't know this. Well, I'll guess, in times past they had to cross a creek to get to church-thus the adage-and the creek don't rise??
