Disappointment... It means to fail to fulfill the expectation or hope of ??? ... Oh my goodness,, how often do I have disappointment.. I want my children to obey... sometimes they do and sometimes they do not. I want to be the perfect mom..... I tend to get so upset or sad when something is a failure. WHY??? Is it not in God's plan?? Ephesians 3:20. God knows exactly what we need. Maybe we need to be sad and disappointed at times. If we were happy all the time and everything went our way wouldn't we already be in heaven?? Saturday night Adam's jeep, which he has only had for about 2 weeks, broke down. He was so disappointed.. He had big plans with his friends and the 4-H dance. He didn't want to go at all then. None the less he went with us (hiding as we pulled in and walked into the building).. Turns out he had a great time. He even came and chatted with us a few times.. He still needs to get the fuel pump fixed, but today it just doesn't seem so bad. I got a letter from my doctor about a test that was run. The day I had the test, she told me everything looked good. I was so excited only to get a letter a few days later telling me there was something abnormal. What a disappointment...The other day we were suppose to go out to my sisters and visit. At the last minute our plans got changed. All the children were so disappointed. Shiloh actually devistated.... I guess my point is, do you dwell on the disappointments or do we move forward and trust in God??? 1 Peter 2-6 says those who believe in Him will NOT be disappointed... So we MUST believe in Him, everyday... Even when things are a disappointment. I guess I better get something done around here before the "WIND EVENT" as Marquita wrote about, hits tomorrow. GOD BLESS!!

Great post! I got the ball, and playpen. Thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteJohn has been having fun with the ball, I keep telling him that it's MINE not his. :P
I've been feeling ok, just really tired and achy. But I suppose that's just part of the territory.
I go to the midwife every week now, in fact I go tomorrow. Hopefully there will be some more progress!
And God says that He will never leave us or forsake us....even in our disappointments.....Praying for you.
