Expectations

EXPECTATIONS

We all have them.

But what happens when your EXPECTATIONS

are not being met.

Oh WEARINESS can set in.

In the WAITING for this or that to happen or to change.

In the WAITING for the she or he to change.

In the WAITING for you to happen or to change.

But what if

GOD is actually meeting

HIS EXPECTATIONS

for you & I

that

are way better than the EXPECTATIONS that we are placing on

ourselves and others?

Even though

I know that GOD'S plans way surpass my plans,

right now

I am growing WEARY WAITING for what I can't change.

Can you relate?

Especially when we are told~

"And let us not grow weary while doing good,

for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart" (Galatians 6:9).

To GROW WEARY~

the temptation to LOSING HEART.

The term LOSE HEART describes the WEARINESS and fear a mother experiences in labor.

Oh how she is totally out of control in the midst of the hard work and pain that the delivery process demands.

She doesn't know how long it will last, yet she has no choice but to go through it,

as a baby WAITS for no one.

Oh the WEARINESS of the WAIT that becomes so taxing on the heart,

yet she has to continue through even though she may be

LOSING HEART.

Are you LOSING HEART?

Are you holding on to a thread as your arms are getting tired?

When we get too focused on what isn't going right in our life

we miss WHO is right all the time

because

JESUS is never wrong

even though HE was wronged.

JESUS always is good

even though others called HIM bad.

JESUS is JESUS

whether anyone didn't believe that

HE was

&

whether anyone believes that

HE is

&

that

HE will always be.

So what do we do when we get WEARY in WAITING

and start to LOSE HEART

and be tempted to GIVE UP?

We

allow JESUS to

UN~WEARY us

as HE tells us to

"Come to ME all who are WEARY and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28)

And JESUS means what HE says, and says what HE means.

Oh a smile returns to my face

as I am not LOSING HEART

because

JESUS IS JESUS

and HE changes everything~

"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal" (2 Corinthians 4:16-18)

Therefore

BE WAITLESS

&

"PRESS FORWARD WITH A STEADFASTNESS IN CHRIST" (watch below)

because

JESUS is always doing good.
