Check out why you must trust people with wisdom.
Trust is a very vital thing in life: we do always desire to be trusted by our parents, our colleagues at work, our children, siblings and anybody we have dealings, appointment and association with: but sadly, people do use the trust that someone had on them to harm them; you may even see with me that sometimes the enemy may even employ the very person they know you trust to harm you for them. So you now see how trust is good in life and can be dangerous if not with wisdom.
Now you may ask: "how can one trust the other, and then again with wisdom"- well I'll get to answer that.
This is how you can trust someone, but apply wisdom in all dealings:
1. Your friend come to your house at midnight and knock on your door; in your wisdom, you may need to see him maybe through the window-glass or any means before you open either the gate or the door for him. That means you have wisdom even when you trust him.
2. You visit your friend and he brings forth drink that its seal had earlier been broken, - that is a drink that was opened before then - and pour it into one glass for you and in another glass for him or herself. Now in wisdom, don't be the one to drink the wine first, you may just kiss the drink and keep it, let him or her be the first to drink his or her own; and let him or her drink of it notably to you before you then drink your own in real also.
3. Your friend ask you to go and accompany him or her to somewhere at the wrong time, maybe at night; a place you are not comfortable with, a place that is so lonely and so suspecting; in your wisdom, don't say he's or she's my trusted friend, apply wisdom so as not to go.
4. You see a friend giving you something that is not brand new or with receipt, and you know that you did not use to see him or her use that thing, which would have made it very clear that the thing belongs to him or her; in your wisdom don't collect such a gift, don't say "I trust him or her" and collect it.
5. Your friend ask you to come and sign a surety for him or her to collect or loan money, and you are the only one that can help him or her to loan the money; in your wisdom, only sign surety for the amount of money you can pay up should any thing happens and he or she can't pay up the money.
6. Don't tell your friend all your success story, irrespective of how you think you know and trust him or her, as that would only steer envy from within him or her.
7. Don't tell your friend about your marrital problems, irrespective of how you trust him or her, as the end results may surprise you.
8. Don't always tell your friends about the help that someone is about to give you in advance.
9. Don't always announce to your friends everything in details, especially things that involves money.
Trusting people does not mean that you shouldn't apply all necessary precautions and wisdom of life.
So those are some of the ways you can trust with wisdom.
