Often times we hear individuals say Christians use God as a crutch. The idea they are typically attempting to convey is we lean on God because we can not stand on our own. Here is my thought on that subject.
If a man breaks his foot, he goes to the doctor and is given a crutch. Now a smart man would use the crutch. Walking around on his broken foot not only creates unnecessary pain but it also prevents the body from healing itself. A wise man would use the crutch, decrease the pain and increase healing time.
When we come to God we are broken and hurt. Leaning on God allows us to heal faster and hurt less.
I say only an idiot would walk around on a broken foot and refuse to use a crutch :)

Crutches make sense
