Oh, so as you understand it, you, yourself, born and taught and with skills learned and honed, cannot ‘go out there’, find a job in your field(s) of expertise at a wage level commensurate to your knowledge, skills, and abilities, on your own? You learned the teachings. You are the one who gained the experience making “widgets”. You learned and applied the technoical knowledge to craft precision “widgets”.
You have all of your “widgetry” certificates.You sought and found the job. Your history made you th
e candidate, worthy for the employer to make a bet on you offering big money, which in this present job market, you sccept gladly.
And, you, did none of this on your own?
The context that we are talking about, in regards to self-sufficiency, is not capability. We are talking about people who do not think that they need God. People who think themselves as being so wise that they never turn towards God.
