Thanks Karen! I can’t remember what exactly prompted me to write this in the first place, or when, because you’re right that we all deal with this throughout life. Praise God He understands and is with us. Thanks for your encouragement, I hope God gives you joy today no matter what you are facing!

Thank you, Lois. It’s a time for ALL the feelings, isn’t it? Sometimes I miss get so caught up in the dramatic things (or avoiding those haha) and forget that simple things like disappointments matter to God. So glad we can bring them to Him. But God…!

Disappointments because our expectations didn’t pan out or what we hoped for never came to be, is something that happens to us all. And it even tests our faith as it did some biblical people.

This is good: “We struggle with dreams as Christians. Often we struggle because we put our hope, oh so humanly, in things, ideas, and plans instead of in the Lord.”

I’m feeling the disappointment of missed milestones, while often reminding myself that God has purpose for these cancellations in the lives of those who are even more closely affected than me. (I also appreciate your use of the word “disappointment,” rather than other more dramatic terms.) I love how the timing worked out for this post … but God. 🙂

Aw Lisa, I’m so sorry. It’s so sad to miss that time of life in-person. Happy 6 months to your little granddaughter. I hope God gives you lots of tech connect time and comfort in the disappointment. May we all be able to get together in-person with our people again soon!

Michele, I hope this is an encouragement to that young friend. I’m so grateful God’s Word holds stories we can identify with in our disappointment instead of platitudes.
