A Thinking Error. Trusting someone is a show of weakness to you. Although you refuse to trust others you demand that they trust you, even though your behavior clearly shows you are not trustworthy. You believe in a ‘criminal’ trust, meaning that someone will back you up in a crime or keep silent when questioned. Trusting God means that if you pray at the right time God will get you out of a tough spot. You rely on power for control, not trust. Your favorite victims are those who are most trusting, those you have manipulated to believe you have their best interests at heart while you actually exploit their trust.
