"Trust Yourself"
When I trust myself in my walk with God, rather than try to "do what someone else has done or is doing, I find it liberating, and I also sense God's pleasure in that. My sense is that God connects with us in a way similar to how Jan and I parented and now Grand parent (hopefully we learned it from God in the first place): we tried/try to discern the unique inner heart of those we love and touch them there and find ways for that part to flourish.
Similarly, I believe, God connects with your inner being, your uniqueness, and together you and God help you grow more fully into the person God created you to be, and your spirit flourishes, and your love for God blossoms and develops. And you are free to delight in God, with ever increasing joy.
Love and Prayers,
Dan

"Trust Yourself" by Bob Dylan
Trust yourself
1. Trust yourself to do the things that only you know best
Trust yourself
Trust yourself to do what’s right and not be second-guessed
Don’t trust me to show you beauty
When beauty may only turn to rust
If you need somebody you can trust, trust yourself
2. Trust yourself
Trust yourself to know the way that will prove true in the end
Trust yourself
Trust yourself to find the path where there is no if and when
Don’t trust me to show you the truth
When the truth may only be ashes and dust
If you want somebody you can trust, trust yourself
Chorus:
Well, you’re on your own, you always were
In a land of wolves and thieves
Don’t put your hope in ungodly man
Or be a slave to what somebody else believes
3. Trust yourself
And you won’t be disappointed when vain people let you down
Trust yourself
And look not for answers where no answers can be found
Don’t trust me to show you love
When my love may be only lust
If you want somebody you can trust, trust yourself
