MEMORY Due Wed., May 7, 2025
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. (What does this mean?)
I believe that God created me and all that exists, that he gave me my body and soul, eyes, ears and all my members, my mind and all my abilities.
And I believe that God still preserves me by richly and daily providing clothing and shoes, food and drink, property and home, spouse and children, land, cattle and all I own, and all I need to keep my body and life. God also preserves me by defending me against all danger, guarding and protecting me from all evil.
All this God does only because he is my good and merciful Father in heaven, and not because I have earned or deserved it. For all this I ought to thank and praise, to serve and obey him. This is most certainly true.
John 17:3 Now this is eternal life: that they may know you the only true God and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.
