"All my days were written in Your book and planned before a single one of them began." Psalm 139:16b
Most, if not all, of our trials and frustrations in life are a result of unmet expectations. We expect (read as "guess") that something will happen and then when it doesn't, we get bent out of shape. The problem is that our expectations are typically linked to our "wants" and not on what God wants. God knows what will happen and what will happen usually has to do with what He feels is best. If we truly want our expectations to be met, we need to expect what God wants and not what we want.
Lord, help me to see my life through your eyes and not through my selfishness.
