When you say you trust another human, usually you are talking about something in particular or just that their general trustworthiness is high. Never can you totally and with absolute confidence in every small detail say that you trust another human being. And this is as it should be because God reserves the sphere of total trust for himself. To trust totally you must have something completely perfect to trust in. Those who attempt to put this sacred sphere of trust onto other human beings are doomed to be continually disappointed.

Human beings are fallible creatures and often you are guilty of having expectations that are too high. Often it is not another person's sin against you that you should be blaming for feeling let down, but rather your own illusory expectations instead. Can you really blame someone for operating at the level that they are. If you expect them to operate in a higher moral sphere, you are in error. Often you blame someone for being untrustworthy when in reality it is you that are guilty of misunderstanding that person's level.

As you progress in the spirit coming closer to the Father and partaking of his divine perfection, truly do you become a better friend to others just as the Father is a perfect friend to you. You then can justify another's faith in you. You can earn other's trust. The Father is truly a perfect friend, you can never put too much trust in Him for he will never let you down. And, as you partake of his nature, you are less and less likely to let your friends down.

Think of a time when someone was disappointed in placing their trust in you. They felt treated unfairly, but didn't you also feel treated unfairly? Didn't you feel that you needed to be who you are and who you are required certain actions which may not of seemed unfair to you at all? Now think of a time when you deliberately did someone wrong. Sometimes the motive could be to deliberately break another's trust in you. Sometimes, someone's trust is too big a burden and not expressive of who you are. Sometimes you might not feel that this burden of trust is fair and this is certainly so.

Each person must come to trust the Father and Him alone. Once you can come to that understanding, then the betrayals and let downs that other people bring into your life is not so hard to bear because your sacred trust is not lying with them. Your sacred trust is unshakable and complete so the foibles of your fellows are not so grave, not so serious.

Now we come to the part where you begin to be worthy of the Father's trust. The Father knows your level, he knows what he can give you and what you cannot handle. You never have to worry about violating the Father's trust because you cannot do it. You can never disappoint the Father. You can never violate his sacred trust in you. There is no place in your relationship with the Father for guilt. All of you have experience with children and you know that you do not want them to feel guilt and self-loathing over some minor infraction. Really, what you desire most from them is love.

Q: When you feel guilt based on love, when someone you have loved you have let down, does that follow with what you are saying.
