“Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me.” Psalms 54:4 NIV
When working with couples one thing we always assess for is interdependence, which is the ability to thrive together while still being self-sufficient. Counselors refer to this as a “secure” attachment and this is not an easy feat to achieve/maintain.
The moment we read that verse and substitute “The Lord” with something/someone else, that’s the moment our position weakens and we start developing unhealthy dependency.
Let us keep God as our source of sustenance and love/live freely. Let us keep God God and everything else will fall in place.
