    One must never try to rely upon others. Yes, reliance serves a purpose, unfortunately, it amounts to co-dependency.

    Yes, God looks out for each of us, often in ways we at the moment don't recognize - example, a tragedy which alters our life's path for the better in retrospect.

    My assessment? Yes (re: your question), because indeed in this world mostly malevolent types offer commentaries on our lives, nothing positive, just rehashing the negatives, sad to base our self-image upon such negative feedback.

    God does indeed look out for you - my belief-based opinion, hence don't ask for empirical evidence to back up my opinion :) but I do believe this. I also believe I interact with people who need my feedback (because of reasons which defy worldly standards, ergo a supernatural element)

    Kindred spirits like me share in your existence... all kindred spirits of our kind ultimately connect on this ethereal level, so, take heart, RECOGNIZE you're not alone, despite being surrounded by worldly types who would have you believe you're irrelevant.

    Who looks out for us - besides God? From personal experience - kindred spirits do... whom I had the fortune to find. But, I personally would add that God directed me to find them, still, actual human beings who recently helped me did look out for me, because God worked in them. -Pat

    Blessings to all. that 's not the way , I look at it God promise to supplies all of our need spiritually and physically, and he put us here the help one another, but before that we have to learn how to take care of our selves and to choice the right path. Sometimes bad things happened to good people but we have to trust, God, believe Him and do not doubt Him. We have to keep on keeping on Sometimes the storm of life depending on our situation would make one think this way, problems with families, friends and not having the necessities we need to pressed on will stress us out but life is about holding on and always trying to do the right thing. we fix what we can and if we can't we leave it in the hands of God He knows our needs and our desires. he is our helper and he will always send some one to help us. Nice question, very interesting. peace to all.

    Hi Apostle Jack, that is hundred percent true. You are sole responsible to look after yourself. Sometimes some may take care of you, no doubt. But for them to act so, it is you who have made up their mind to do so. So self determination, self esteem, self discipline, self confidence, self realization are so important!

    No, that is not how I feel, I have friends as well who look out for me. And I look out for other people. That is part of being a good person.

    My family looks out for me and some very true trusted friends,

    BUT, I know God will never leave or forsake, as He promises even to the end

    of the world..

    Matthew 28:20

    Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

    People will always disappoint us even at their best.

    I put my full trust in Jesus.

    Blessed Be The Name of THE LORD

    HE REIGNS

    not exactly, god is irrelevant in my life. I look after myself the best because I know myself like no one does or ever will... also because I take responsibility for my own life and actions.
