Expectations matter. They
matter in every area of life. Unrealistic expectation lead to disappointment,
frustration, and even worse. But the truth is, even realistic expectations that
go unfulfilled can result in feelings of distress. As we turn our attention to
Daniel 6, we gain insight into what we should and shouldn’t expect in the
Christian life. Join in prayer with your church family as we ask God to refine
our expectations and seek to live in light of Truth.
