Finite disappointment - Infinite HOPE

"We must accept finite disappointments, BUT
never lose infinite HOPE." - Martin Luther King Jnr.

We had a look at "Dealing with Disappointment" in our sermon series yesterday. My friend, Collin spoke clearly about how we can get a 'grip' on disappointment in our lives. We all face this at some stage - broken promises, shattered dreams, hurt feelings, lost opportunities. None of us is immune from this kind of hurt and brokenness.

The danger with disappointment is that it threatens to leave us in the pit of despair. We should always remember that with Jesus we can hold onto Infinite Hope. Disappointment may last a while, but our hope in Christ can last for ever.

Romans 5:5 - "And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love."
