SoulFit: Why Waiting is so Hard

from The Mind Body Project · host Aaron Degler

We pivot from a planned study on Sarah and Hagar to wrestle with why God’s silence stings, how waiting exposes control and identity, and where scripture points us toward renewal and trust. A small, timely encouragement lands as a reminder that delay can be design, not neglect.• why waiting tests trust more than patience• control versus surrender in Proverbs 3:5–6• waiting as preparation beneath the surface• renewal and stamina from Isaiah 40:31• identity doubts and strength in Psalm 27:14• perseverance as faith’s muscle in James 1:2–4• a real story of delayed signs and perfect timing• a weekly practice to name, pray, release, and replace with scriptureIf you have any thoughts, comments, or questions, send those to me. Anything I can do to pray over your life, please send that.  And not only the things that really are on your heart heavy, if you have any blessings, send those and let’s celebrate those blessings.https://aarondegler.com/
