Solomon Northup quote #365 from Twelve Years a Slave
At such times the heart of man turns instictively towards his Maker. In prosperity and whenever there is nothing to injure or make him afraid he remembers Him not and is ready to defy Him but place him in the midst of dangers cut him off from human aid let the grave open before him then it is in the time of his tribulation that the scoffer and unbelieving man turns to God for help feeling there is no other hope or refuge or safety save in his protecting arm.
