Waiting can feel confusing, painful, and deeply personal — especially when you have been praying, trusting, and showing up, but nothing around you seems to be changing. In this Pretty Deep episode, Petrina Verma shares how God may be doing hidden work in you during a waiting season, even when you cannot yet see the answer.We talk about the lie that says, “If nothing is changing, nothing is happening,” and how Scripture shows us a different story. Through biblical examples like Joseph and David, this episode explores spiritual formation, trusting God’s timing, surrendering control, and learning how to meet God in the waiting instead of striving your way out of it.In this video, you’ll learn:Why waiting on God does not mean He is absentWhat hidden work God may be doing in your heartHow spiritual formation happens in unseen seasonsWhy delay is not always denialFive prayer and journaling questions to bring to God while you wait  This episode is part of 'The God You Didn't Know' — a season of honest conversations about the misunderstandings about God that quietly shape our confidence, identity, and peace. Watch the full series here  ➡️  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuIjdmA2_b_OmBO6i6_R8hEsJrkRSXsGz⏰ Timestamps 0:00 — You've been praying.
