The "E" word

Ann V. begins with these words: "Expectations kill relationship."

She had me at that "E" word. If you, like me, struggle with expectations, go read the rest of Ann's post.

And may your day be *full* of surprises.

  2. What a true statement! I read this this morning but plan to read it again over the weekend to digest it more. Good stuff!

    I also made the Soft Ginger Snaps...they are so good! My only problem is I want to eat about 10 at a time :o) Maybe you should include a warning label with the recipe!

  5. I loved this. And I REALLY loved her Grace Surprises (?) post... the one with the dress. Hope you've had some lovely surprises today, Stacy.

  8. Like all our weaknesses, I think it is a flip-side of a strength. The longing for heaven (perfection) that the Lord put in us. This isn't all there is!
    But man, do I ever need the help of the Holy Spirit to rest in what he does or does not have for me today and quiet my expectations for tomorrow!

  9. I KNOW! It took my breath away, as always.

    Every day is full of those surprises - we just need to remember to look for them.

    Thanks for reinforcing her words, Stacy - I will head back to read again... and again...
