Disappointments

Sometimes, we really look forward to something, and then it turns out to be a total disappointment.

And it really sucks.

I suppose the lesson to learn is that things don’t always go the way we hope and wish, but that doesn’t mean to give up. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and all your mind.

It still sometimes hurts when the disappointments arrive, perhaps more so knowing that someone else is aware of the hurt it will cause and is causing, yet does not intervene or reach out clearly or directly to soothe.

God, help us to be well and loving and together, please. Thank you for our home. Keep our family safe and well and together. Guide us always to be our best selves, the people you made us to be. In your name, I pray. Amen.
