Comment:	Toward the end of this article the author makes the point that we are willing to trust a person with our hearts knowing that people fail and hurt us but when it comes to God, who never fails, we're not sure He can be trusted.. This can be somewhat explained. God has established key relationships in life to mirror His love relationship to mankind, these roles being fathers of children, husbands of wives, and pastors of churches. These roles are God ordained to mirror to the world how He loves us, how we are accepted and secure within His fold...to say to His people "you are safe here." When these roles are corrupted, for example, if a christian husband has repeated extra-marital affairs on his wife or a christian leader continually involves himself in immorality, these God mirroring roles become confused and infused with insecurity. Feelings of distrust and fear of God replace in people's hearts God's intended desire for mankind to experience trust and safety. Sadly God becomes mocked and the church at large becomes a joke to unbelievers watching the duplicity of some of it's husbands, pastors, and fathers. God's intended flock of safety becomes instead a pasture that wolves in sheep's clothing prey on. Yes, God desires a deep meaningful relationship with us, however, His will is greatly hindered by the actions of the few who corrupt their God given positions for selfish gain...which I'm sure the author of this article understands perfectly well.
