We make it such a rough walk as we move away from the innocence of our childhood to the challenges of our natural world adulthood. Trust in God is swallowed up by our ego's and our need to be in control. The many masks of success are all around us and we try to put on our mask, which is demanded by the natural world playwrights.
Trusting in God always wins out over the other options. We are home-schooled by God our Father and as our teacher, He will give us our grades. The grades given by the 'masked' people are not accepted, authorized or accredited by God.
