Expectation

Life is a continuous process of getting used to things we hadn’t expected.

–       Unknown

That quote certainly is true of what the past has thrown at us. Experience should have taught us to expect some of the unexpected. Truthfully, there are just too many variables in life to use experience as a guide as to what the future might bring. Experience sometimes is no more accurate than a crystal ball.

Does the Bible address this phenomenon? Glad you asked.

Proverbs 19:21 

Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.

Proverbs 20:24 

A man’s steps are from the Lord; how then can man understand His way?

Someone has already been there. Take His hand. Give it some thought.
