Expectations

We all have expectations. We have expectations in our families, jobs, restaurants, Amazon, sports teams, etc. Expectations become the source of our unhealthy emotions (anger, sadness, anxiety) when our expectations become “Truth,” But, our expectations are subjective to our personal preferences. These become even more dangerous when our expectations collide with God’s expectations. When Jesus enters the temple on what we refer to as Palm Sunday we see how the people have an expectation of who they want Jesus to be, but Jesus will collide with their expectations within a week by not providing the freedom the people desired.
