“We should praise God for disappointment because it drives us to our knees. Disappointment is like a dream defibrillation. If we respond the right way, we can restore our prayer rhythm and resurrect our dreams.” – Mark Batterson

Disappointment Restores and Resurrects
“We should praise God for disappointment because it drives us to our knees. Disappointment is like a dream defibrillation. If we respond the right way, we can restore our prayer rhythm and resurrect our dreams.”

Dealing with Disappointment
Disappointment is the first seed of doubt that intrudes on our faith. Disappointment sounds so harmless, but it’s the tip of a wedge that will stop our spiritual growth and make us bitter and defeated.
…if we let our disappointment fester, the wedge is driven in a little farther, and we experience discouragement.
Unchecked, discouragement becomes disillusionment.
Then the wedge invades even more territory as it proceeds to depression.
Ultimately, we end in defeat.
How do we prevent the penetration of this deadly wedge into our spirits?
