Disappointment
Today at communion I apologized to God for being a disappointment. I suppose I feel that way because if I were God, I would be disappointed in me! My life doesn't look anything like what I had hoped. Now I know that God doesn't think like me (thankfully!) and may not be disappointed in me at all. But I know that I am.

Disappointment. A funny word when you think about it. A feeling in the gut. Does God get that feeling in the gut? Maybe. But, for sure, he holds us in the palm of his hand.
I'm sure sometimes He IS disappointed in what we do - because we could have done so much better if we'd listened! But He's not disappointed in US.
It's a doing over being issue. Disappointed over the doing but not the being.
