You Lack When You Rely On Others That are Without the Truth of God

Proverbs 22:16. If relying on our ourselves does not work, we will then seek others to satisfy our wants. Most times this reliance on others goes past getting a helping hand or charity. Our reliance on others soon turns to fulfilling our wants versus God's truth. We will quickly take counsel to fulfill our wants at the expense of hurting our fellowman. We will steal from our employer, we will lie to the insurance company, we will delay in paying our taxes, we will default on loans, we will scheme to take money from others, we will break promises, we will give gifts to polities to gain favor, we will play the lottery in vain hope, or we will give up in addiction (Proverbs 22:16, "He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want."). We lack because we do not know the truth. Judgment comes to us because we neither love God or our fellow man. The only true way to be fulfilled is through accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior. He has the true answers to life and fully equips every believer to fulfill their purpose in life.
