As Bill See's it.. page 72
GRAPEVINE, JANUARY 1962

Dependence -- Unhealthy or Healthy
"Nothing can be more demoralizing than a clinging and
abject dependence upon another human being. This often
amounts to the demand for a degree of protection and love
that no one could possibly satisfy. So our hoped-for
protectors finally flee, and once more we are left alone --
either to grow up or to disintegrate."
<< << << >> >> >>
We discovered the best source of emotional stability to be
our HP himself. We found that dependence upon His perfect
justice, forgiveness, and love was healthy, and that it would
work where nothing else would.
If we really depended upon God, we couldn't very well play
God to our fellows, nor would we feel the urge to rely wholly
on human protection and care.
