Disappointments
I was offered a ride to The Following earlier and
was super excited to be able to go yesterday! While at Church last night Josh
started talking about disappointments and I thought, disappointments, me? NO
WAY! My life is wonderful! Shortly after as I sat by my friend who is a
teacher, reality hit. Oh yeah…disappointments. Weren’t you going to be a
teacher? How’s that working out for you?
As the night went on, Josh described
disappointments he had faced. Josh is an ex-military man. I dislike using the
term “ex” because of the negative connotation to explain that he used to be in
the coast guard. Although Josh and his wife Jenna appear to have everything
going right for them, it was made clear that everyday God is still at work in
their lives and they face disappointments but that God comforts them in their
disappointments through His word-- GOD WILL COMFORT US IN OUR DISAPPOINTMENTS
THROUGH HIS WORD!
I had plans to be a school teacher and not becoming a school teacher was a disappointment.
Although I’ve had many people including teachers during interviews question if I
was going to let that stop me, During other later interviews I realized that my
teaching might just be in a different role other than a school teacher.
As I went to bed last night I thought about how I had been encouraged to blog.
Blog? I thought. That requires organization….my thoughts apparently aren’t organized.
I prayed about it and when I woke up this morning I had amazing texts—The first
was actually a FB message from a man I look up to, Andrew P encouraging me to continue
posting the Biblical posts I posts and the second was actually from last night but
was an unrecognized number. This morning I found out it was from Hannah! My mind
was filled with memories of Hannah and her family who have now live elsewhere as
Pastor Evens now has his own Church (okay, it’s God’s Church).
Here goes the blogging adventure….again.
