RELIANCE
Who or what are we relying on to get our needs met?
There are many ways that we can get our needs met.
Tom Bond likes to say that there are 9,999 ways to get a need met!
However, when we are activated, we tend to believe that there is only one way
or only one person who can meet our needs.
That is because we are regressed to childhood when the amount of people, resources, and options
available to us was very limited.
In this regressed state we often try to rely on the wrong people to get our needs met.
We might get controlling and try to force others, who aren't willing, to meet our needs.
NEED PRAYER
Believing that there is only one way our needs can be met
or only one person who can meet our needs gives us a sense of desperation
and may lead us to try to force someone to meet our needs.
When someone else is activated, they may try to force us to meet their needs.
In these cases, it can be helpful to say a quick Need Prayer:
"Creator, please help me find in you a way to get my needs met,
which I am looking for in this person."
AND/OR
"Creator, please help this person find in you a way to get their needs met,
which they are looking for in me."
Secular Version:
"May I find another way to get my needs met, which I am looking for
in this person."
AND/OR
"May this person find another way to get their needs met, which they are
looking for in me."
