The plans of men...The plans of God

AELW 5:120

"And this is the common way of all life, not only in the case of the saints but in common life among all men, as the examples in the comedies prove. He who believes rashly is deceived. On the other hand, you will try in vain to deceive him who does not readily believe. But many such things happen in the life of the saints in order that we may see how God governs His saints, turns their foolishness and rashness into the greatest wisdom, and grants to their plans, which at first seemed very stupid, very beautiful results.
