Avoiding the Trap of Depression When Disappointed Benita R Lawrence

Disappointed is defined as the feeling of sadness or displeasure caused by the nonfulfillment of one's hopes or expectations. Yep! That just about sums it up in a nutshell. Disappointment is one of the most potentially emotionally debilitating feelings that we can have. When what we expect, have hopes for and even release our faith to receive does not come to pass or happens beyond our anticipated timeframe, it can wipe us o-u-t, out. Because our emotions are in a vulnerable state when we are disappointed, the enemy can attempt to take advantage of us during this sensitive and unguarded moment. The devil will introduce negative, narrowminded thoughts about our current situation to bait us into a downcast and pessimistic perspective while deviously launching us into full blown depression. In this book, Avoiding the Trap of Depression When Disappointed, we will learn that while we, as God's children cannot avoid disappointments, we can gain a better understanding of them and use this perspective to renew our thinking as we posture ourselves in a strategic manner to withstand the wiles of the enemy.
