I am the type of person that just wants to do whatever it is on my own. I know me and my expectations and others at times just do not seem to meet mine. I do not believe that I have any limitations other than what I decide not to do. I ask God for guidance and while I do whatever it is, I will talk to God.
This has to do with trust. I will not let a mechanic touch my car unless I absolutely have too. I would rather make my own furniture. I would rather do my own plumbing, carpentry, roofing, grass, electrical, HVAC, and anything else around the house.
I have been asked why a few times and most think it has to do with control, but it is not a control issue. This is a trust and experience issue. I have had others do the work and it never turns out the way I want or they break something else and want to charge me for their mistake or they damage it just enough so that is breaks sometime later knowing that I will have to cal someone to come and repair. It is a cynical way of looking at the world, but until the world proves me wrong it is the point of view I will take.
There is one that I trust and that is Jesus Christ. He came into the world not to condemn me, but to save me. He did not request that I die on the cross or sacrifice my life to atone for my sins. What He did ask is that I follow Him in the way He lived His life. He did ask that I love the Lord with all my heart, mind, and soul. He also asked that I love my neighbor as myself. He did ask that I go into all the world to make disciples and baptize them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. However, He made the first move by paying the ultimate price. He gave knowing that a lot of people would reject Him.
