Hey,
Thank you Lord for knowing my heart and for providing the answers I so needed. You know for me to feel this way,![]()
ITS FOR REAL! So I say Thank you for answers.
Today I want to blog about Trust!
I bring this issue up because last week I was talking to a coworker about this project that I am working on. When another co worker said that he would never give a homeless person anything because one day he bought something to eat for this person, and he guess they wanted money instead, and when he pulled off in his car, he turned around and caught the homeless person throwing the food away. My coworker said he would never do that again. I told him this that changed his way of thinking. I said if you\’re going to be upset at this person, that\’s cool. But its not fair to be mad and all of them. I said you are going to run into a lot of homeless people in your life, and if you judge this person by the last person who threw your food. THAT\’S NOT FAIR. I told him if you are mad at that person, that\’s cool, but give each person a chance. It just not fair to base your giving to the homeless off one ungrateful person. He got it. And I was happy.
There are people who just don\’t trust others for something someone has done to them. So then they put everyone in that same box and they begin to treat others with that lack of trust. That\’s just not fair. Then some people get into situations where they are at a place where they don\’t need anyone, they don\’t trust anyone and they become content with that way of thinking. Its because they have built this stage to where everything that they need its at their finger tips, JUST SO they wont have to need, or depend on anyone. If you have a friend like this START PRAYING!
Cause let me tell you. When that person finally realize what you\’ve been telling them all the time, that you have to learn to trust others and you cant treat everyone like that last person did, its going to be hard for them to get it together. For some people its soooooooooooooo easy for them to say, * well I see why this and I see why that* and that\’s why I don\’t trust this group of people and that\’s why I don\’t trust those kinds of people, because THEY ARE act the same way. That\’s not fair.
If a person asks me to drop them off at home, and I say to them I\’m not going to do it for you because……………. * the last person I dropped off at home, they said that they were going to pay me when we get to the house, and they just got right out the car and did nothing*. Why would I say that to this person who has nothing to do with the last person? People do that everyday. And I know people who has gotten comfortable with it and don\’t even want to deal with people in one area ever again, just because of that one person. Then they *geek* themselves into believing that they HAVE GOOD REASON not to trust anyone again concerning a certain situation.
I see that people pick and chose what and who THEY TRUST. Let me run down some examples of just how stupid it sounds when people *twist turn* and misuse the word TRUST so that it could BENEFIT them WHEN they need to USE IT! Below is examples of how when they end up BOXING themselves in with their own * betrayal stories of trust*.
- * since my last house caught on fire*, I\’m going to sleep on the street because I don\’t TRUST houses.
- * my last 2 white cars got stolen, so I don\’t TRUST buying white anything every again.
- I don\’t TRUST policemen because they take too long to respond, so I\’ll just find my missing niece on my own.
See that\’s how people end up putting themselves into their own little box and then they expect ANYONE WHO IS LIKE MINDED TO JOIN THEM!
In closing. If you have a issue with trusting people in the past for anything. Don\’t treat everyone like the person who wronged you. Don\’t do the next person that way, give them a chance, maybe, just maybe it will change the way you look at the word TRUST.
Good night
