Waiting can feel like one of the hardest parts of our faith journey. Not because we’re doing nothing… But because we don’t know what God is doing. We find ourselves in seasons where prayers feel unanswered. Direction feels unclear. Progress feels slow. And if we’re honest… it can feel like nothing is happening. But what if something is happening? What if the waiting isn’t empty… but intentional? I’ve been in a season like that recently. I haven’t sensed a clear direction yet for what’s next. And if you’re anything like me, that can feel uncomfortable. I like to have a plan. I like to know where I’m going. But sometimes God doesn’t give us the full picture. Sometimes He asks us to wait. And that’s where perseverance becomes real. Not in the doing… But in the trusting. Isaiah reminds us that those who wait on the Lord will have their strength renewed. Not by striving harder… but by remaining anchored in Him. Waiting isn’t passive. It’s not sitting back and doing nothing. It’s an active, intentional choice to trust God when you don’t have answers. It’s choosing to believe He is working… even when you don’t see it. Psalm 27
