There is a hint of this in the Bible, in the principle prayer taught by Christ, in which it is said, "Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." It is a psychological suggestion to mankind to make it possible that the will of God, which is easily done in heaven, should also be done on earth. And the English saying that man proposes and God disposes supports this; it suggests the other side of the same truth. These seem to be two contrary ideas, yet they explain the same theory: that what is meant by destiny is changed by man, but that destiny also changes man's plans.
