Waiting isn't a season. Waiting is life. The question is, Will you live in the wait

We don't ever graduate from waiting. After one prayer is answered, a new one begins, putting us back in the "space between." Are you hoping for an illness to subside, a job to open up, a relationship to develop, or some other heartfelt transformation This slow burn is the human experienceβ€”and the greatest invitation to become intimately acquainted with a faithful God.

Waiting is hard, but it's not a punishment; it's a process. God is not delaying; He's developing. He is not leaving you; He's loving you. He's saying, Come closer. Let me lead you into wonder and show you how you can live wholeheartedly right here, right now.

DawnCherΓ© Wilkerson will speak strength to your soul and give you tools to

  • live confident that God is working more powerfully than you know;
  • wrestle with the question, What if what I hope for doesn't happen;
  • find the purpose and life-giving moments he has for you now; and
  • view all of life as a joyful, soul-deepening, intimacy-building wait.

Β 

More strength, expectation, and patience are within your reach, even amid uncertainty and suffering. Lean into the work of the waitβ€”the constant, steady, slow burn of faith and surrender to your ultimate source. And you'll discover the wonder of the waitβ€”glimpses of heaven, a perfect love that changes you, and each step celebrated along the way.
