Flamma sine Fumo | ||
Gods Providence
Deus est in Angelis per gloriam, in Electis per gratiam, in omnibus per providentiam.
The Lilies do not spend the weary day
In spinning thred to make their clothes more gay:
Yet Solomon had no such rich attire,
Whom all the world for glory did admire.
The Ravens have no barn to store their grain,
They do not sow, nor reap with careful pain;
Yet God feeds them. If he the birds do feed,
And clothe the grass, he will sustain my need
With greater love: I never will despair;
When all is spent, God will my stock repair.
