Disappointment, Hope, and Eternity
Disappointment happens when you hoped for an outcome that did not come to pass. Or this outcome failed to meet expectations. In essence, these disappointments are “failed hopes”. We hoped things would turn out a certain way and they didn’t. If it didn’t bring the amount of pleasure you thought it would or things just didn’t turn out the way you wanted then you will be disappointed.

The person who really goes through The Narrow Gate (Christ) also walks in The Narrow Way (follows Christ’s commands). Those that claim faith in Christ without following Christ will find, in the end, that they are not really one of Christ’s people.
Beware the False Prophet (Matthew 7:15-18)

Which Gate Have You Gone Through? Which Path Are You On? What Is Your Eternal Destination? (Matthew 7:13-14)
We are here commanded to enter where most do not enter and walk where most do not walk and at the end of this path is eternal life that most people do not have. Enter this path through Christ, it is difficult, and few go there, but the reward is beyond measure.
