Catechesis: First Commandment

We will how He requires nothing greater from us than confidence from the heart for everything good. Then we live right and straightforward and use all the blessings that God gives, just as shoemaker uses his needle, awl, and thread for work and then lays them aside. Or we may behave like a traveler using an inn, food, and bed only to meet his present need. Each person may do this in his calling, according to God’s order, without allowing any of these things to be his lord or idol.—LC I:47
