FATALISM
I hear one say, “Well, sir, you seem to be a fatalist!” No, far from it. There is just this
difference between fate and providence. Fate is blind; providence has eyes. Fate is
blind, a thing that must be; it is just an arrow shot from a bow, that must fly onward,
but hath no target. Not so, providence; providence is full of eyes. There is a design in
everything, and an end to be answered; all things are working together, and working
together for good. 187.181
