How did the Nile and crop influence egyptian religion?

the Nile river is thought of to be one of the prime factors the ancient Egyptian civilization strived for the thousands of years that it did. Egyptians believed the river was a blessing, as it provided the people with everything they needed each time the annual flooding seson came about: excellent soil to grow crops, a new transportation method via long wooden boats, bathing water and more. Ever since king Menes united upper and lower Egypt together to form the set of cultures and beliefs we know today from the country, Egyptians have always praised the Nile. And of course, this society believed there was a god for everything that blessed them. This is where Hapi comes in; god of the Nile floodings. The symbol Egyptians associated with Hapi in their religion was the lotus (which represented birth in the ancient Egyptian religion), as the shape of the river in northern Egypt resembles the flower. The flooding of the Nile was also said to be named the Arrival of Hapi, which may symbolise birth since Hapi is shown to be wearing lotus flowers on his head.
