Expectations bringing you turmoil?



Expectations bringing you turmoil?

It is important to do good with pure motives. When we, knowingly or unknowingly, attach an expectation of getting something in return for the good we show to others it can set us up for disappointment, unhappiness and anger. It can lead to an attitude of being unwilling to do good to people in the future. Rather do good without an expectation of return. Don't allow your joy to be dependent on being praised, thanked or blessed in return. Choose to rejoice within. Choose to rejoice over the good you have done to people and to God Himself. Even if nobody else shows up have a rejoicing party all by yourself. Rejoice always!! If you like my devotions consider subscribing to my wall posts.
