I have never met anyone who believed that they had unrealistic expectations. I’ve met people who have high expectations or low expectations or strange expectations, but I have never met anyone who acknowledged that their expectations were not reasonable. We all think that our expectations are reasonable. This applies to our expectations for our families, for our jobs, for our government, and also for God.
And when our expectations aren’t met, we find ourselves dealing with disappointment. Have you ever been disappointed with God?
Have you ever felt like He let you down? Right now, are you hesitant to trust God because He hasn’t met your expectations?
This Sunday, Palm Sunday, we will get to experience the story of some people whose expectations fell flat at the feet of Jesus. And then we will discover that unmet expectations can be the best gift that God can give us.
Dan
