The Joy Of DisappointmentBen Ayala
While
in Bible college, I auditioned for one of the school’s traveling
musical teams. I was excited about the thought of being able to be
involved in that ministry, but was crushed when I failed to make the
team. In my disappointment, I could only trust that God’s purposes were
greater than mine.
Months
later, I had the opportunity to join a different musical team, but as
the Bible teacher. The results were more than I could have imagined.
Not only was my future wife a part of that team, allowing us to serve
Christ together, but it also gave me many opportunities to preach over
the next 3 years—priceless preparation for a life of ministry in the
Word. 
Many
times we struggle with the reality that our Father knows what is best.
We assume our way is right. But, as we rest in Him, His purposes always
prove to be for our good and His praise. To be honest, that’s easy to
see when the outcome is better than we had hoped, but difficult when we
can’t see the good right now or maybe won’t till heaven.
As
wise King Solomon said, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and
lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him,
and He shall direct your paths” (Prov. 3:5-6).

me, O Thou great Jehovah,

God’s
purpose for today’s events may not be seen until tomorrow.

📖 SERIE BÍBLICA COMPLETA: 🌾 SEMANA 1: Dios el Creador, el Origen del Hombre y la Promesa Propósito: Comprender que Dios es un Dios de orden, que nos dio dignidad al crearnos y que, aunque el pecado trajo espinos, Él siempre tiene un plan de redención. 1. Dios pone orden en medio del caos Cita Bíblica (Génesis 1:1–3): "En el principio creó Dios los cielos y la tierra. Y la tierra estaba desordenada y vacía, y las tinieblas estaban sobre la faz del abismo, y el Espíritu de Dios se movía sobre la faz de las aguas. Y dijo Dios: Sea la luz; y fue la luz." Ejemplo Bíblico: Dios no destruyó la tierra vacía; pronunció su Palabra y fue separando la luz de las tinieblas y el agua de la tierra seca hasta dejar un mundo hermoso. Ejemplo Práctico para Hoy: Pensemos en un terreno cubierto de maleza, piedras y charcos. A simple vista parece inservible, pero el agricultor no lo abandona: lo limpia, lo ara y lo prepara.
