“It having been said above that God bends all the reprobate, and even Satan himself, at his will, three objections are started. First, that this happens by the permission, not by the will of God.

“I have more dumb luck thank anybody I know. There must be a convey of guardian angels working twenty-four hours a day looking after me[...] Like the night I first got to Nashville that I laid down in the middle of Broadway, waiting to get run over. It didn't happen [...] I could swear they were keeping me alive just to see what I'd get next, I'm glad they feel that way. I'm trying to help them a little more this days.” KnowsWayFeelsTryingFirstsLittlesHelpingHappensRunningNightNextWaitingHoursFourAliveMiddleAngelTwentiesLuckGladDumbOver ItThis DaySwearBroadwayGuardianNashvilleGuardian AngelDumb Luck Author:Willie Nelson
