Expectations

A friend of mine has authored a book, "Mad Church Disease" - it's awesome!
I never cease to be amazed at the anger to us because we don't immediately do what is expected for us to do or say. They expect me to get my husband to obey what they want him to do. There's a sizzling in the request; and they get literally mad (there's that Mad Church Disease popping its ugly head) because they don't get their way. It turns into a bit of drama, thus causing "I'm right, you're wrong." God is not pleased with that drama for sure. I feel like sending up a prayer immediately to God to love that person (or persons) more because of the expectations. He is so forgiving and loving. I Cor. 13:3

My husband and I have learned after all these years to prioritize between someone pressuring "their way" or "manipulating" the action. It is my sincere prayer that expectations pass quickly and an attitude of patience will be forthcoming.

At any rate, today is a big day in history! Enjoy your day as we witness our 44th President being sworn in!!! God bless you this day!
