If we look, we see that all things and especially living creatures have numerous different needs and numerous different wants. And those wants and needs are given them at the appropriate time, in unexpected ways, from places they do not know and their hands cannot reach; succour comes to them. But the power of these needy beings is not sufficient for even the smallest of those endless things they wish for; they cannot meet their needs. Consider yourself. Of how many things are you in need that your hands cannot reach, like your external and inner senses and their needs? Compare all other living creatures with yourself. See, just as singly they testify to the Necessary Existence and indicate to His Unity, so too in their totality do they show to the reason a Necessarily Existent One behind the veil of the Unseen, a Single One of Unity, among titles of Most Generous, All-Compassionate, Nurturer, and Disposer.

And so, O ignorant unbeliever and dissolute heedless one! With what can you explain this wise, percipient, compassionate activity? Deaf Nature? Blind force? Senseless chance? Can you explain it through impotent, lifeless causes?

It's called luck dude. Sorry, but if there is a god I don't think he's worrying if I get that promotion, or win the lottery. And not every ones needs are met at the appropriate time. Not only that, look in nature, animals have no belief system. And yet somehow they find ways to survive. We on the other hand destroy our environment. Who's better off?

If theists think this way, I now have another problem with them. Your post is simply a retreat to the necessity of God because you have such a low opinion of the "grasp" of living beings around you. It's a "God of the gaps" argument, where the gap is only because of your low opinion of our capacities. Your argument is poor on both counts. Do you not see the contradiction in believing in a benevolent "creator" who would have made us so weak as to be so needy of him/her/it? Ridiculous.
