Each day something
unexpected happens
Perhaps it's a bright goldfinch or
red cardinal
darting across the road as you're driving
to or from work
Perhaps a person you haven't seen in
quite sometime
Perhaps being reunited with family members
you haven't seen in umpteen years because
of somebody else's feud in the family
Some are little, some are BIG things
BUT
then there are the expectations we have when someone
let's us
down
They don't follow through,
instead
they
drop
the ball
and everything we expected becomes
darkened, tarnished
And we are hurt because our expectations
were
b-r-o-k-e-n
Expect
the
unexpected
STOP

Makes sense...most things are actually unexpected, aren't they? :)
ReplyDeleteOur pastor says the level our disappointment equals the difference between our expectations and reality.
