I believe God has made me and all creatures; He has given me my body and soul, eyes, ears and all my members, my reason and all my senses, and still preserves them; He richly and daily provides me with food and clothing, home and family, property and goods, and all I need to support this body and life; He protects me from all danger, guards and keeps me from all evil; and all this purely out of fatherly, divine goodness and mercy, without any merit or worthiness in me; for all which I am in duty bound to thank and praise, to serve and obey Him. (Martin Luther’s Small Catechism)
