TRUSTING

Wasting your Trust.....?

by JWvJ

A FOOL FOR TRUSTING.....

I trust people much too easily. That means that the way that I grow in maturity regarding this issue will be through my mistakes that I make. But my growth route has come to a pre-mature status of a conditional pass....... a few days ago or so......I am changing!

When people put their Trust in something or someone they mostly have a choice and do not have to do it while being "blindfolded" and without having opportunity to investigate a little.

But without even thinking, we put our trust in elevators, cable cars, public transport, taxi's, and foods in the grocery shop. Yes, we also passively trust the people behind the scenes in the growing, packaging, preserving, manufacturing and other processes.

We trust surgeons and specialists blindly and we do not even know their drinking habits or how they treat their wives or husbands. We do not know how disciplined they are in their work or whether they have been at the top or the bottom scores in class while they were studying........

Everything in worldly life is unsure and still the common trend in life is not to think deeply and not to search for the ultimate answers in life.....

We are prepared to grow and feed our empathy and sympathy for painful situations through possible and probable  yes and also transparent miss-calculated and/or fake scientific results. Thereby soothing our own desires (mostly well intended) and thereby fail to contribute to the solution in the bigger picture. We should stop thinking with our feelings.......

Many persons think for instance that people who identifies as opposite gender to that which they were born into, needs our agreement rather than our logic. They base their hopes on immediate relief of emotional pain and think a problem is then solved.......Or they even think that there is no actual problem at all. And by doing so we might just be shouting an encore to the "act" of a child that is confused by constant and ongoing marital trauma who thinks he/she has to choose between two parents shouting hateful words to each other in a fight. This can be the whole reason or one of hundreds for one specific gender confused person...... Trusting our own feelings of sympathy to be our guide on how to respond to such problems is wasting our trust...and wasting their trust. It is like catching water with a sieve. 

Having people's trust in our agreement with them when we actually have to discern through the leading in the Holy Spirit, we contribute to the problem rather than helping to get understanding of their situation. It is very much like encouraging someone to commit suicide through whatsapp messages in order to just get the suffering of that person over. The "spectators" also becoming victims through self-inflicted damage of having bi-polar emotions towards what to choose.....life or death for the sufferer. It is a waste of trust. All because of a lack of knowledge which the Bible described as the reason why we are perishing...... Many people lack knowledge of how to choose life over death.....

We trust the wrong people more readily than the right people. The wrong people being those whom you can cling onto for soothing your pain opposed to the right people who can through confrontation of the issue, bring understanding and freedom.

What would have happened if I had trusted some of my children when they wanted to drive our car to a party they wanted to attend when they were only 14? Or if parents had said yes or their boy had the power to decide himself, to donate one of his eyes to a friend who lost one of his own eyes in a car accident. Likewise we cannot let a child go shopping in a gender shop..... Children go through many stages in their childhood......wanting to follow many dreams....of becoming firefighters, princesses, policemen and woman etc.  But we do not give them a gun to start experiencing the effects of being the police, or a match to burn down their treehouse in order to experience being a firefighter......
