Disappointments In Life
No one likes disappointment, but it is inevitable. We usually encounter it in one of four ways: we get disappointed in people, in ourselves, in our circumstances, and even in God. Disappointment is a common experience. Since there is no running away from it, how do we hope?
Who or what comes to mind when you think of the word disappointment?
No one likes disappointment, but it is inevitable. We usually encounter it in our lives in one of four ways:
- People disappoint us. Anyone who does not meet our expectations is a disappointment. On the flip side, we disappoint others, sometimes severely.
- We are often disappointed in ourselves. We fail to live up to our own expectations.
- We are disappointed in our circumstances. Unexpectedly, we have become the latest victim of cancer or job cuts at our workplace.
- We are disappointed in God. At the time we need Him most, He seems to be silent and absent. Disappointment leads to bitterness and anger toward God.
Disappointment is a common experience. Since there’s no running away from it, how do we hope?
This selection of articles from Our Daily Bread offers a different perspective on disappointment and a radical approach to living that is intended to comfort you and encourage you to rise from the ashes of sorrow, pain, and turmoil into hope, joy, and peace.
