Grace in Waiting

“Patience is not the ability to wait, but how you act while you’re waiting.” — Joyce Meyer

We don’t usually like the waiting places in life. The pause between what we prayed for and what we see. The silence between questions and answers. The uncertainty between promise and fulfillment.

But it’s often in the waiting that grace does its quiet, transforming work.

Waiting has a way of exposing what we rely on most our plans, our control, our timing and inviting us to release them into something greater. It’s in these in-between spaces that grace whispers, “You don’t have to rush this. You’re still growing, even here.”

Sometimes grace doesn’t change the wait, but it changes us while we wait. It softens our hearts. It strengthens our trust. It deepens our gratitude for what we already have, while preparing us for what’s next.

So this week, if you find yourself waiting on healing, clarity, provision, or peace remember: grace hasn’t forgotten you. It’s already at work in the unseen, shaping what’s ahead and sustaining you right where you are.

Where in your life are you being asked to wait right now? And how might grace be meeting you in that space?

Join me next Wednesday as we continue our journey through Grace in the Middle, discovering how gratitude and hope can take root even in uncertainty.
