Hebrews 9:27(KJV)

27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

Appointments are dates, or times when you need to be some place.  If you miss that appointment you are a disappointment to someone who set up the appointment, the person who is waiting for you.

Another type of appointment means that someone is being assigned to a position. People are appointed.   Disappointments are seeing someone who you thought was supposed to be in a position, and seeing they have failed. You expect to see something, but are disappointed in the reality.

I expect so much out of myself, because God has appointed me to be a Christian.  When I see myself, and my actions, I am disappointed.  I fail miserably every day.  At night I pray, LORD FORGIVE ME!

God is insulted by that prayer I think, but I keep doing it. I think it is my flesh.  God appointed people who believe in Him to have ever lasting life.  It is God’s appointment not ours.  No one can appoint themselves.  It is a gift from God.

1 Peter 2:9  But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

An appointed person has an office, not a task. We do the tasks better and better because as we realize our office, we begin to live more and more like we belong in that office. It is a matter of accepting this reality of who we are more than anything else.

God bless you and good night.
