Waiting—it’s one of life’s hardest tests. Whether you’re waiting for a dream job, healing, or direction, those in-between moments can feel unbearable. But as followers of Christ, we’re reminded that waiting isn’t wasted—it’s sacred. In this episode, we explore how God uses seasons of waiting to strengthen our faith and shape our hearts.

Romans 8:25 tells us, “If we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.” That patience isn’t passive—it’s trust in motion. God isn’t silent or distant; He’s preparing you for what’s ahead.

Takeaways from this episode:

  • Waiting is not punishment—it’s preparation.

  • God works deeply in moments of silence.

  • Trust in His timing builds endurance and faith.

  • Hope in Christ anchors us when life feels uncertain.

If you’re in a season of waiting, remember: the One you’re waiting on is never late.
