Navigating a New Season: "The Waiting Room"

Every new season comes with our own set of dreams – for our family, finances, or for our future. But, when circumstances beyond our control alter the plans we have, how do we navigate through the change? There is often a disconnect between our dreams and reality. Learning how to sit in the “waiting room” is an important part of the process of developing our dreams into reality. It can be the happiest waiting time, e.g., for the birth of your child, or tax-return in the mail, or mom returning from her trip. Or, it can be the most agonizing ordeal, e.g., waiting for the results of surgery, jury verdict, grade report from school. What you do during your waiting time is the key to stepping into your future. The life of Joseph in Gen. 39 helps us to understand how God treats our waiting times, not as wasted time, but as time to adjust our dreams to align with His purposes. Support the show
