Reassurance in God

I think the ultimate reassurance comes from God but in no way that you can pin point and if you could you could never actually prove it was God. Hence, faith falls into place. This is somewhat frustrating at first because you never know if what you are experiencing is what everyone else is experiencing so time and time again we ask "is this so?" "Do you see me this way?" even if the person voiced exactly what you wanted you know deep down that they are only a person and can't truly define you because of their lack of perfection and cognitive knowledge of knowing how everyone in the world is compared to you. Please don't be confused with the context in which I am talking about here. I am talking about reassurance about something your are worried about. Not petty reassurance like "do I look good" or something trivial. More like sicknesses and personality types and who knows I have yet to discover all the ways this can manifest it self in a negative light. But it seems to be an issue of lack of faith and trust. I know many things come down to this but that is the bottleneck. If you do find out something is wrong maybe get second opinions not endless months of reassurance. I think bassed on the Linden method this is a very wise way to think and to live. Ultimately you can never get enough reassurance, so deep inside you must be selfishly seeking attention in some way that helps feed your thoughts about being insecure in some area in your life. I think I have found this to be an evil that can lead to many bad things and can only develop with many different fears, that could eventually turn into phobias and anxiety and eventually into depression. You would naturally think that telling people and getting this reassurance would be good and natural and I think it is, unless you take it to an extreme. So like anything else there is a balance and this balance is some how made by Gods divine abilities to communicate with us and set us back on track. Its funny when you think about a guy or a girl when they are trying to get to know each other and they both seek reassurance over and over and over again, its always annoying to the witnesses around but the individual just can't seem to feel the assurance. If you think about it you know people like this and you know or wish they would just believe and have faith that the other individual likes them and move on! instead of constantly seeking this reassurance. Reassurance seems to be a journey off the path out of the way to find knowledge which really isn't there. This, I am learning won't help you in faith or understanding. Thus we must trust and have Faith and find our reassurance in God.
