I believe that we need to lower our expectations of man and heighten our expectation of GOD. In doing so, we will never be disappointed.

People cannot always live up to our expectations. It’s unfair to expect more than they are able to give. They’re a work in progress. GOD will complete the work that He started in them according to His infallible Word.

On the other hand, when we lower our expectations of GOD, we limit the blessings that He wants to lavish on us, because of our unbelief. In heightening our expectation of GOD, we open the floodgate of His glory upon us.

Stay blessed as you keep your eyes on Jesus.

Birds sing whenever a new day dawns
And night creatures give voice every night
The trees of the field clap their hands in the breeze
And the sun touches all in its sight

Stars sparkle against the black canvas of night
They’re magnificent in their display
And the moon’s ever changing yet constant form
Softly shines to light up our way

What an awesome Creator, our God and King
To whom lightning and thunder bow down
He controls the formidable, raging sea
And the storm clouds which hide the sun

He sends the snow and the pouring rain
And the cold winds and the hurricanes
In His presence the earth quakes and splits in two
And tornadoes tear up the plains

And at His command the sun warms up the land
And the ice and the snow melt away
And flowers spring up and decorate fields
In a diverse colour display

No attention to detail was spared when God made
The earth and the Heavens above
From the tiniest life form to the greatest star
All was made in God’s perfect love

Yield to our Father every day
Stay in His shadow, come what may
Seek His will in all that you do
Ask Him and He’ll make your life anew

Take every character flaw to His throne
Don’t try to deal with such weakness alone
Repentance alone will not take it away
Ask Jesus to strengthen that weak link today

Beware for the enemy seeks to destroy
By stealing the Word, thereby stealing your joy
He’ll cause tribulation and evil desire
Persecution and cares of the world He will sire

Just abide in the Father through all of these things
Through all persecutions and all sufferings
But see the reward of withstanding, and stand
Rejoice for Christ Jesus is holding your hand

Overcome evil by good that you do
Lay your cares on the altar, He’ll carry you through
Fear God, never man, trust in His perfect love
Forgive those who hurt you and seek things above

God will give you the words and the way of escape
When you need to flee from the foe for His sake
Don’t be ashamed of the Gospel of Light
Just endure and be patient and fight the good fight

The Willow tree speaks of
Repentance and tears
And Godly sorrow
When Jesus nears

The Myrtle tree speaks of
The joy of the Lord
Unspeakable joy
That the world can’t afford

The Palm tree speaks of
Uprightness in Him
And also of victory
Over vile sin

The Olive tree speaks of
God’s spirit so free
Of the house of anointing
And eternity

The branches of these trees
Are annually spent
On the making of many
Israeli tents

Though storm clouds clothe the sky in gloom
Beyond them lies the sun
Though oft our lives seem worthless
There’s hope for everyone

Though oft’ our hearts are broken
There’s healing for each wound
The Healing balm of Gilead
To patch up lives once ruined

Though there is death around us
We’ve life abundantly
For Jesus took our sin away
Through death at Calvary
