I must admit, I didn't even look at the song title before I started listening to it today. I was working on getting ready for bed when I started playing it. As soon as I heard the first few lines, I knew exactly what song it was - it was "Sing a New Church"!
So, when the time came to start singing the lyrics, and I started singing something different that what my computer was playing, I was confused. While I ended up enjoying "Come Thou Fount," I was still a bit disappointed that it wasn't "Sing a New Church." I was so ready for one thing, and got something very different.
I feel this happens in my life quite often, and I know I don't handle it very gracefully. I come to expect x, y, and z to happen to me but instead get something different. While the new experience isn't bad at all, deep down I still wish that things hadn't changed - that things had gone the way I was expecting. I need to practicing handling change more gracefully. I need to realize that although I expect one thing doesn't mean that there aren't better options out there for me that I just don't know about.
