“I didn’t think it would be like this.” — “It’s not what I expected.” — “If only my life were different.” — “That’s not how I planned it.”
Plain and simple, life doesn’t always turn out the way we imagined. Unmet Expectations: Reshaping our Thinking in Disappointments, Trials, and Delays shows how we can respond in God-glorifying ways when circumstances seem to fall far short of desired hopes and expectations. In Unmet Expectations, we learn that God’s plan for our lives is often far different than we ever expected it to be. Yet, the upending of our plans is one of the means God uses to draw us into a deeper relationship with Him. Using practical, biblical counsel from the Scriptures, we are given the tools we need to leave behind discouragement, frustration, or any other sinful responses that can develop when circumstances aren’t what we hoped. We learn that contentment and satisfaction can be ours, even if the Lord allows unfulfilled expectations to remain.
Each chapter in Unmet Expectations looks to the Scriptures for the life-transforming help only God can give. This book is designed to be an aid to growth, which is why inductive Bible study questions accompany each chapter, providing even more treasures from God’s Word for hope and encouragement.
