12. A PRAYER OF LUTHER ON CASTING ALL OUR CARE UPON THE LORD
O heavenly Father, Thou art truly my Lord and my God, who hast created me, bringing forth out of nothing, and Thou hast also redeemed me through Thy Son. Thou hast appointed and assigned to me this office and these my duties, but matters do not always take the turn I should like them to take and there are so many things troubling and distressing me that in myself I find neither help nor consolation. For this very reason I commit everything to Thee looking to Thee for counsel and aid. In all these questions be Thou the beginning and the end. Amen.
