    Dazed By Discontent And Disappointment - When Hopes And Dreams Are Shattered On The Rocks Of Regret

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Nov 20, 2025
    based on 4 ratings
     | 121 views

    There are times during the Christian walk, even when the miraculous is happening all around, that things will go haywire as the reality of this life intervenes unannounced, and hopes and dreams are dashed on the rocks of regret, which manifest as fear and anger at God because they feel betrayed.

    Fear and hope are similar in that they are both forms of anticipation of the future. Fear is a form of negative hope.

    Rejecting the wisdom of the world means little if we fail to embrace the wisdom from above. James provides practical steps that will lead to success in the Christian life.

    JAMES 4:5-10 STEPS TO A SUCCESSFUL CHRISTIAN LIFE “Do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, ‘He yearns jealously over the Spirit that he has made to dwell in us?’ But He gives more grace.

    Christians living in Sodom are in grave danger. Though God will graciously keep His own, they must need His warning to escape.

    based on 7 ratings
     | 14,369 views

    Do women have a role to play in congregational oversight? What does the Word say?

    “Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. Yet she will be saved ...read more

    “In this matter I give my judgment: this benefits you, who a year ago started not only to do this work but also to desire to do it. So now finish doing it as well, so that your readiness in desiring it may be matched by your completing it out of what you have. For if the readiness is there, ...read more

     | 3,371 views

    All of us, at some point in time, have a mutual desire. To be accepted. To feel wanted, loved and appreciated. Most of us want it so bad, we lose sight of our faith in the Lord. My Pastor has said on many occasions, "Compromise with the world is treason in the courts of Heaven."
