It’s just not possible. To some degree, we all question where we fit and how we’re perceived. Don’t we all work hard to protect the lingering child that still crouches within us and longs for security, worth, and love? Don’t we all hope for connection but often choose protection instead? When we bring it back to discerning our next right thing today, especially if we have a decision to make, we may have a tendency to base that decision on comparison and protection rather than on a relational connection.
