You need water. You need food. You need oxygen. Have you ever contemplated the way that you additionally need trust?
You have to accept that great is coming and that bliss and euphoria are conceivable. You need trust since it continues you.
You realize you ought to maintain a strategic distance from misery, however at times that feels unthinkable. Misery sinks you into obscurity, trouble and a sentiment of being caught with not a single getaway to be seen. You feel weak and unmotivated. You peer down rather than up.
When something impedes you or the sudden occurs, how would you respond? The distinction among expectation and misery could rely upon how you react to a circumstance.
Expectation Sees Opportunities
Have you ever heard the narrative of Zacchaeus? He was the main duty authority in his locale of Israel, which implied he was rich.
Zacchaeus was additionally what Luke 19 portrays as "little in height," also called short. He was disliked and had gained notoriety for keeping a portion of the duties he gathered for himself.
At some point, Zacchaeus heard that a man named Jesus was going through his town. Like any inquisitive individual, he needed to perceive any reason why crowds of individuals were pushing their approach to see Him.
Expectation Looks Up
The group made it incomprehensible for Zacchaeus to see Jesus. What to do? Looking into, he saw a sycamore tree. He climbed its branches until he was sufficiently high to spot Jesus. This worked shockingly better than he foreseen in light of the fact that Jesus spotted him as well.
"Zacchaeus, rush and descend," Jesus said to him. "I should remain at your home today" (Luke 19:5).
Zacchaeus moved down and invited Jesus into his home decisively. At the point when the residents saw what occurred, they were dubious. They blamed Jesus for eating with a heathen and attempted to disgrace the two men.
Expectation Changes Us
In the wake of conversing with Jesus, Zacchaeus astonished the spectators saying, "Look, Lord! At this very moment I give half of my assets to poor people, and on the off chance that I have duped anyone out of anything, I will repay multiple times the sum" (Luke 19:8, New International Version).
Zacchaeus changed that day. Everybody saw it. Cash and wealth were no longer what he put his expectation in. His perspectives and the way Zacchaeus treated individuals changed as well. His narrow-mindedness and unscrupulousness softened away. Zacchaeus discovered something that could never leave, never spurn. He found the affection for Jesus.
Rather than relying on himself or his activity or the amount he had, Zacchaeus chose to begin depending on Jesus.
