“Leaders who make good choices and passionately pursue God will still be disappointed. People and projects will let you down. Don’t despair! You’re in good company among generations of Christian leaders. God is at work in all circumstances to accomplish good.
Through disappointment you can share the sufferings of Jesus, redirect your affections, comfort others, find new direction, and refocus on the hope of heaven. Being disappointed may be a pathway to spiritual growth you didn’t expect. Disappointment keeps us from loving this world too much and helps us focus on Jesus—our eternal and present hope."
~ Dr. Jeff Iorg, The Painful Side of Leadership
"Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation and my God."~ Psalm 42:11, 43:5
In seasons of success or disappointments, may you always find hope in God and praise Him who is your salvation and your God.
