I love your outlook on life.
The fir...Great post. I love your outlook on life. <br /><br />The first thing that comes to mind right now about God exceeding my expectations is blogging. I started blogging for a number of reasons but making friends wasn't one of them. One of the nicest aspects of blogging is the people I have "met." It's not quite the same as an in real life friend but I'm very thankful for my blog friends and that includes you. I'm glad our paths crossed.Angie Vikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03392363949019834052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-244466770609213524.post-34421242197905648502010-10-24T21:39:50.074-05:002010-10-24T21:39:50.074-05:00This is so real and honest - thank you!
There ar...This is so real and honest - thank you! <br /><br />There are too many to list of how God has exceeded my expectations. I think though I feel it most when I think of His grace. He didn't have to send His son, but He did.

Although, I ...I think you're absolutely right! Although, I think that when we pray expectantly, we also have to respect the sovereignty of God and accept that he might not answer our prayers the way we want or when we want. In fact, we might go years and years before seeing the fulfillment of God's plan.

I mean the Bible does say that we can move mountains with the faith the size of a musterdseed, so for me, living expectantly would include expecting God to answer my prayers...to do great things. You know? Jesus did all kinds of miracles for people when He walked the earth. I think I should expect that same kind of power in my own life now.<br /><br />Ok, so I didn't exactly answer your questions. I rambled.
