Waiting on God: We’ve all experienced this tension of not knowing the outcome of a situation, but we're waiting for God to show us what to do.
We want to stay connected with God because we need His help to know how to get through this trial or situation. But truthfully, waiting on God can feel difficult and confusing.
What does it mean to wait on God? How can we wait on God's timing well–with faith and grace–and what can we learn from these times of waiting on God?
