Trusting God in the Waiting Season | Foster Care, Faith & Uncertainty
from Fostering Kingdoms | Faith at the Heart of Fostering | Support & CPD for UK Foster Carers · host Jessica Smithers-Jones
What do you do when nothing seems to be changing? In this episode, we talk about trusting God in long waiting seasons, especially in foster care, where answers, outcomes, and breakthroughs don’t always come quickly. Foster care is often lived in the “in-between.” Waiting for court dates. Waiting for decisions. Waiting for behaviour to settle. Waiting for clarity. Waiting for change. And sometimes, faith can feel quiet in those spaces. Trusting God in long seasons doesn’t look dramatic. It often looks like steady obedience in ordinary days. In this episode of Fostering Kingdoms, we explore: * What faithfulness looks like when nothing feels visible * Trusting God when prayers feel unanswered * The spiritual formation happening in slow seasons * Long obedience in the same direction * Learning to rest in God’s timing rather than forcing outcomes The quiet season still counts. Just because it isn’t loud doesn’t mean it isn’t sacred. This conversation is for UK foster carers walking through prolonged uncertainty, slow progress, or silent prayers and wondering if God is still at work. He is. Even here.
