Let’s be honest. We’re frequently disappointed. With family, friends, leaders, work, ourselves, church – sometimes, dare we say it, even with God.
‘You carry the tears inside,’ is the author’s description.
Disappointment can be devastating. It can be sudden. And it’s certainly universal.
But what if we were to use disappointment as an opportunity to check whether our motivation and priorities were in line with God’s will? Could it provide a chance to grow ?
No matter who you meet they are generally disappointed in something : relationships, work, church, lack of spiritual growth, the list is endless.... Paul Mallard opens up why this is, gives a number of practical examples, explores the themes of God and Christ... Were they ever disappointed, and ultimately shows how every experience of disappointment is an opportunity to grow in faith. A great resource.
This is the kind of book I need to come back to again and again. So packed full of wonderful truths. So well written. The kind of book I keep quoting to people!
