#9 Disapointment Lemonade

I am handling disappointment this morning. I thought all the cards were in our favor. I thought I saw the signs-God's will was unfolding in front of my eyes. The divine connection, the provision was coming! Until I got the news. That which I was hoping for was taken away from me. Yet, I did not posess that which I hoped for-Why then did I consider it already in my possession? Why must I grieve that which I didn't yet posess? My faith is tried due to my expectations of what I believed the will and plan of God-who is "other".                                                                       

So I say in faith this morning "Your will O LORD, not mine...in my grief and sadness I release my expectation, my will to you." In my tears and sobs I reluctantly release the hold I have on the life that I thought you had for me and I open myself to YOU!
