Don't
bail out...because you can't figure it out. What are your expectations?
What you expect is what you will find. An expectation is a strong
belief that an event will happen or be the case in the future. Every day
you anticipate events-you expect things to happen based on what you
believe. Many believe life's circumstances dictate what they can
expect-this is a lie. As a Christian, your expectations
are in Christ- being sure of what you hope for & certain of what
you don't see (Heb 11:1). Fear screams, "what you see is what you can
expect!"
Listen closely, no matter what you see: a broken relationship,
financial ruin, betrayal of a loved one, death, mental issues, medical disability, war, grief, diseased
body, depraved mind...you can expect that God's mighty to save you &
He will comfort you with His love (Zeph 3:17). Christ is before the
seen & unseen-He holds it all together (Col 1:17). Life's
circumstances don't determine your destiny or what you can expect. Your
destiny has been determined by God, Jesus has already made a way & the Holy Spirit will guide you! Your part is to face the difficult circumstances then Jesus
will walk you through, but if you don't face it...He can't walk you through
it. Make a decision, put your confident expectation in Him-walk by
faith, not sight (2 Cor 5:7).
Life is cruel
& unfair at times, but you can have a confident expectation despite the trials. Expect change; don't get caught up in how the
change will occur-you can't figure it out. Jesus has overcome this world-He's deprived it of the power to harm you
(Jn 16:33). Keep your faith in Him-constantly (Mk 11:22). Humanly speaking what you see is impossible, but not for
God-all things are possible for Him (Mt 19:26)! Your expectations aren't
in what you can do or see; your expectations are in God-He's got good
plans for you (Jer 29:11). Don't bail on God...He won't bail on you. LMM #whatdoyouexpect #christianinsightforlife
