2024 Bible Tribe Ep. #878 Week 5: Expectations: Trusting God When It’s Hard to Wait – Sunday 2-4-24 The Bible Tribe Podcast
-
- Christianity
What are you expecting from this life? From God? Expectations can really let us down. Much of our life is spent longing for something we really hope for or believe in, and it still seems so out of reach. In all our readings this week, there is a stumbling block one must choose to step over as one waits on God. We forsake the peace that could be ours when we fix our thoughts on our failed expectations rather than on what God has said. A scripture-shaped mind will focus more on how we can fit into God’s larger plan than how His plans might fit into ours.
