Bethany, I love this. I really like all the points you make about how waiting is active. So good. And this is gold: “Waiting is a God-designed practice.”

In reply to Lois Flowers. Thanks, Lois! I think this is the 3rd time this post has been published over the years...and I still need it EVERY time!! Praise God for His faithfulness and so many affirmations that His timing is perfect and His purposes are always for good. Hugs back, friend!

This is SO good, Bethany. Even more so knowing your recent experience in life’s waiting room, and how all THAT turned out. 🙂 I’ve had my share of fits on God when I didn’t think I could wait another second, but His timing and purposes have always been for my good. And, turns out, I’ve always been able to wait lot longer than I think I can. Hugs, friend.

Bethany, patience does not come naturally to me. I need to exercise faith and trust. Wonderful post!

In reply to Nanchi. Thank you! I’m just really bad at waiting, so I think, read, and pray on this topic a lot!! Praying we both wait well today!

In reply to Barbara Harper. Wow, what a great illustration. I have to admit I never thought about the term “waiter” thoroughly. Amen! May we do the same!
