Perspective
We let our experiences with disappointment color our expectations of fulfillment. (Chris Tiegreen, devotional writer)
For some people, there seem to be more disappointments than fulfilled hopes and dreams. Whether it’s an imagined jinx or just coincidence, it still makes life hard for them. Tiegreen may be suggesting that we just need to change our perspective. Instead of expecting the worst, begin to anticipate the happy consequences of our actions and hopeful dreams.
It is pleasant to see dreams come true (Proverbs 13:19).
