If you’re disappointed in God

it could be your expectations are unrealistic

Maybe it’s because you don’t have a realistic notion of what God is, and what you can reasonably expect. 

Maybe God doesn’t do the kind of stuff you’ve been led to expect God does.  Maybe the role of God in the Universe isn’t what you’ve been taught. 
Maybe it is entirely different from the model of God which you were told was not a model, but a Reality…

 As if we can know! [More later on the distinction between knowing and believing.]

If God is real and absolute and perfectly God, then if we are disappointed, then who do you suppose is working with the wrong equations?  Who needs to reframe the picture? 

Getting the right answer is all about asking the right question.  Oh, and listening to the answer. [Even, recognizing the answers when they show up! This is the first challenge!]
