Choosing Love Today

Choosing Love Today: mini-message - Abraham: Waiting Builds Trust


Listen Later

When we step into the Book of Acts, we see people waiting — waiting for direction, waiting for power, waiting for God to move.

But that’s not a new pattern.
It’s something God has been doing with His people from the very beginning.

Take Abraham.

God gave him a promise: “You will be the father of many nations.”

But Abraham didn’t step into that promise the next day… or the next year… or even the next decade.

He waited 25 years before Isaac was born. Twenty‑five years of wondering… Twenty‑five years of hoping…

Twenty‑five years of trusting God even when the timeline didn’t make sense.

And here’s the part that speaks to us today:

God wasn’t just building a nation — He was building Abraham.

Waiting taught him trust. Waiting taught him surrender. Waiting taught him to walk with God even when he couldn’t see the finish line.

Maybe that’s where you are right now. Maybe you’re in a season where the promise feels far away…

where the timeline feels slow… where the next step isn’t clear.

Abraham’s story reminds us: Waiting isn’t wasted. Waiting isn’t delay. Waiting is preparation.

God uses the waiting years to strengthen your faith, deepen your trust, and shape your heart for what’s coming next.

So as we continue through Acts — a book that begins with waiting — remember Abraham.Remember that God is working in your waiting too.
