The Power of Patient Waiting

Recommended Reading James 1:2-8
Devotional: Waiting can be challenging, but it's often in these seasons that God prepares us for what's ahead. The disciples waited ten days for the promised Holy Spirit, using this time for prayer and preparation. In our fast-paced world, we often rush ahead of God's timing, potentially missing crucial preparation.
Reflect on areas in your life where you're waiting on God. How might this waiting period be preparing you for what's to come? Remember, patience in trials produces spiritual maturity and completeness.
Prayer: Father, grant me patience in seasons of waiting. Help me see these times not as delays, but as opportunities for growth and preparation. Teach me to trust Your perfect timing.
