Disappointments lead you to redirection!

Sometimes, what we prayed and planned will never happen as what we are expecting from it. And we often hear some rants of people when they are disappointed with the result that they are dreaming for a long time. The word disappointment means sadness or displeasure caused by the nonfulfillment of one’s hope or expectations.

Most of the people live in too much expectation which they believed that these things are what they need in fulfilling their desires in life here on earth. They planned and look forward to the possible outcomes without considering the process along with it. Their desires in life are somewhat frequently contradicted by what God is wanted for them.

Disappointments are caused by too much expecting to something. When their expectations and the results do not match, disappointment happens. Your expectations may be too high for the situation so even if you think those expectations are appropriate but not be realistic at all. The unwillingness to accept the fact and reality trigger anger especially in those who are obsessed with everything. And when anger happens, you lose a lot of interest in everything that you’re dreaming of. If you don’t know how to cope up or how with disappointments, the continuous manifestation of unmet expectations gives a big impact on someone’s behavior such as depression, denial, and fear.

But did you know that there are certain circumstances that disappointments are ways of God to say “My child, that’s not what you need, that’s not what or how should be done”. Somehow, disappointments lead you to redirection. Redirection defines the action of directing something to a new or different place or purpose. Sometimes God redirects you to lead you and guide you to the best direction of your life. Redirection lets you see that you’re not on the right path or able you to feel from within what you need to improve in order to make it happen. Redirection gives you a clearer perspective; you should be reminded that disappointments can give you new and better opportunities.

Maybe you cannot easily understand why or how God’s redirect you, better believe that these disappointments are the way of God to knock on your heart that is not how he planned things for you. God’s rejection is His way of redirecting you to get through it. It is somehow a course correction of everything. So when something doesn’t work out as how you planned for it, there’s something better coming your way. Though it’s difficult to believe from where you stand, sometimes this redirection leads you away from problems you could not predict and you could never imagine. These disappointments lead you to a lesson learned that is beneficial to your growth as a human.

Disappointments are somehow blessings in disguise. It maybe appears bad at first, but it results in something very good in the end. All your sacrifices and efforts will throw you on journeys you never planned and dreamed of. Always be reminded that disappointments lead you to redirection.
