Topics: Fourth Petition, Bread, Trust

125. Q.

What is the fourth petition?
A.
Give us today our daily bread.
That is:
Provide us with all our bodily needs 1
so that we may acknowledge
that you are the only fountain of all good, 2
and that our care and labour,
and also your gifts,
cannot do us any good
without your blessing. 3
Grant, therefore, that we may
withdraw our trust
from all creatures
and place it only in you. 4
