- Do you find yourself compelled to help people solve their problems?
Are needy people always attracted to you? Do you try to please everyone
and feel guilty when you can't?
- Do you get down when people are not giving you praise?
- Are you a worrier?
- Do you find yourself talking too much and wonder why you can't keep
your mouth shut?
Co-dependent behaviors are very self-destructive.
When learning to become God-dependent we come to realize that God is
our strength, our all-in-all. No one person will be able to satisfy your
every need, nor will you be able to meet anyone else's.
God is the only one who will be strong enough to carry you through life.
When we try to take on the responsibility of another person's life we
play God. This is dangerous and destructive for the other person and
us.

heart and my portion forever." Psalm 73:26

hearts on pilgrimage." Psalm 84:5
