The Fundamental Stoic View of Providence states that God is responsible for someone's life. Individuals who believe in destiny and blind fate determining the journey and ultimate course of one's life would not align with the Stoic view of Providence. Providence also refers to foresight and foresight, these futuristic concepts linked to the religious sphere. Under this vision, all things unfold according to the Lord's divine plan. Over the years, the Stoic view of Providence has been expanded, and some philosophers have offered their own insightful versions of it. Cleanthes decided to write a poem about this concept, praising God as a kind being who designed the world based on Providence. Later, in the 5th century BC, Herodotus gave a slight twist to his interpretation of Providence by mentioning nature in it. He felt that divine providence was a type of wisdom that maintained a sense of balance in the world by preventing one type of creature from dominating all other creatures. The Christian view of Providence has some history in the Greek and Roman views. Christians based their view of Providence on the Old Testament, referring to how Abraham sacrificed his son Isaac for God, as Abraham believed that God had a greater purpose and would use the sacrifice for Abraham's ultimate good. Christians also felt that God cared about people in the world he created, looking after their well-being. The German book Religion in Geschichte und Gegenwart tries to explain Providence further by stating: “God keeps the world in existence by his care, he governs and guides the world and humanity deliberately according to his purpose, and he does so in his omnipotence as God the Creator, in his goodness... middle of paper... the world. Think about how different the world would be if great authors like Jules Verne decided not to pursue their vocation. So many people would miss out on fascinating books that have entertained readers around the world. Making your outward actions match what's inside your mind and heart is one of the keys to a happy life. When moments in life become hard and challenging, it is also that sense of hope that keeps us going, giving us the certainty that we are on the right path.

For some people, it is the sense of Providence, inspired by God, that instills hope and peace of mind. For others, it is the promise of the universe through destiny and fate that helps keep that hope alive, peace of mind and a great life are the ultimate rewards..
