I am currently reading “The Shack” by William Young, in this book it talks about living in a state of expenctancy in relationships verse pressing expectations on relationships which cause laws and rules to come into play. I would much rather live my life going forward in a state of EXPECTANCY then with expectations, it seems much more free.
