There is always a process between a promise from God and the fulfillment of that promise. Sometimes the process is short, and other times it’s so long that you may wonder if you heard God correctly in the first place. It can be easy to get frustrated, angry, and restless in that in-between time. It can be easy to be discontent, to grumble, and complain, and to be so obsessed with what’s next that you can’t enjoy what’s right now. But the Waiting Place doesn’t have to be depressing and empty, filled with longing for what’s next. It can be a wonderful place of growth and cultivation for you.
