This week we continue our series through 1 and 2 Kings called "Heart & Promise". Today's message from 1 Kings chapter 19, is from Nate Walker and it's titled "Unmet Expectations". In "Unmet Expectations," we explore the universal experience of disappointment, highlighting its emotional and psychological impact on our lives. We delve into Elijah's story, where his high hopes following the triumph on Mount Carmel were met with crushing disappointment, leading him to a state of despair. Yet, in his darkest moments, God met Elijah with sustaining grace, providing rest and nourishment. This sermon emphasizes that, like Elijah, we often find ourselves struggling with unmet expectations, but God's response is to meet us in our brokenness, sustaining and guiding us through His grace. Ultimately, we are reminded that God's presence and mission continue despite our failures and disappointments, offering us hope and a renewed sense of purpose.
