DISAPPOINTMENT

Like Jehoshaphat, we may be precious in the Lord’s sight, although our schemes end in disappointment. ME26 It was a pretty remark I read, the other day, of a Christian man who said, “I used to have many disappointments, until I changed one letter of the word, and chopped it into two, so that instead of ‘disappointments,’ I read it, ‘his appointments.’” That was a wonderful change, for “disappointments” break your heart, but “his appointments” you accept right cheerily. 2420.321
