In the Hands of God

Eisenhower_d-day“There comes a time when you’ve used your brains, your training, your technical skill, and the die is cast and the events are in the hands of God, and there you have to leave them.” – Dwight D. Eisenhower, 34th President and Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in WWII

 

 

Eisenhower said these wise words on the night of July 10, 1943 as he observed 3000 naval ships sailing from Malta to the shores of Sicily.  He saluted his men, then bowed his head in prayer.
