The Importance of Recognizing Our Needs

We all have needs and we all need to be protected from other things. And if we don't have those needs met and we aren't protected from those things, we're naturally wounded. That doesn't make us have an identity of a victim. It just means that there's an impact from the absence of love or from the opposite of love. If we're loved well, we come to see people rightly and see ourselves rightly. Then we come to trust and we don't need to be self-reliant as we do in vows.
