Ever found yourself in a seemingly endless waiting season, wondering if God has forgotten your address? You're not alone.

This soul-stirring episode delves into the profound wisdom of Psalm 27:14, "Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord." As Rick fills in for Lauren on this weekend edition, he delivers a timely message that speaks directly to anyone stuck in life's waiting room—whether you're waiting for clarity, answers, or for God to move in situations where human timelines have long expired.

Through personal reflection and biblical insight, this meditation reveals the counterintuitive truth that waiting isn't wasted time but rather sacred space where God does His deepest work. The episode unpacks how these uncomfortable seasons strengthen faith, teach surrender, and stretch our trust beyond familiar boundaries. When we understand that "God isn't stalling, he's shaping," our entire perspective on waiting transforms from frustration to anticipation.

The wisdom shared here offers practical guidance for walking worthy through waiting: continuing to worship when answers aren't forthcoming, praising through pain, and showing up faithfully despite uncertainty. This isn't just spiritual theory—it's battlefield wisdom for those moments when patience feels impossible but remains necessary.

Whether you're in a brief delay or a prolonged desert season, this episode provides the spiritual nourishment needed to wait well. Join us for this powerful reminder that the One we're waiting on is always worth the wait. Subscribe to Wisdom for the Day for daily doses of spiritual insight that will help you navigate life's challenges with faith and courage.

00:00:01.421 --> 00:00:06.253
Welcome to Wisdom for the Day, your daily source for spiritual refreshment and guidance.

00:00:06.253 --> 00:00:07.602
I'm Rick.

00:00:07.602 --> 00:00:12.512
Join me as I dive into God's Word to find clarity and strength for life's challenges.

00:00:12.512 --> 00:00:18.324
Let me help you embrace each day with faith and wisdom, ready to feel inspired.

00:00:18.324 --> 00:00:19.929
Let's get started.

00:00:19.929 --> 00:00:23.388
And now, weekends with Lauren.

00:00:23.388 --> 00:00:27.329
Hey everybody, this is Rick.

00:00:27.329 --> 00:00:34.587
Lauren was called away for another ministry opportunity and couldn't record this weekend, so I am going to fill in.

00:00:34.587 --> 00:00:43.651
Keep in mind I wrote these for Lauren, so if you catch a little laugh, it's okay.

00:00:43.651 --> 00:00:45.424
Let's get started.

00:00:45.424 --> 00:00:49.183
Today is day 144.

00:00:49.183 --> 00:00:50.685
Walk through.

00:00:50.685 --> 00:00:51.146
Waiting.

00:00:51.146 --> 00:00:54.771
From Psalm 27, verse 14.

00:00:54.771 --> 00:00:56.854
From the New Living Translation.

00:00:56.854 --> 00:01:00.203
Hey, it's Saturday.

00:01:00.203 --> 00:01:02.286
Welcome to Weekends with Lauren.

00:01:02.286 --> 00:01:03.728
I'm Lauren.

00:01:05.430 --> 00:01:16.341
I don't know about you, but I'm not great at waiting Waiting for clarity, waiting for answers, waiting for God to move when I really thought he'd have moved by now.

00:01:16.341 --> 00:01:21.728
Psalm 27, 14 says wait patiently for the Lord.

00:01:21.728 --> 00:01:23.632
Be brave and courageous.

00:01:23.632 --> 00:01:26.475
Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.

00:01:26.475 --> 00:01:33.870
Now that verse doesn't sound like much until you're in a season where it feels like all you can do is wait.

00:01:33.870 --> 00:01:38.263
But here's what I'm learning Waiting isn't wasted.

00:01:38.344 --> 00:01:42.487
When you're waiting on God, there's work happening beneath the surface.

00:01:42.487 --> 00:01:44.626
He's strengthening your faith.

00:01:44.626 --> 00:01:47.522
He's teaching you to let go of your timeline.

00:01:47.522 --> 00:01:50.629
He's stretching your trust deeper than it's ever been.

00:01:50.629 --> 00:01:55.286
And yeah, it's uncomfortable, but so is growth.

00:01:55.286 --> 00:02:01.584
Walking worthy through a season of waiting means you don't stop believing, you don't give up.

00:02:01.584 --> 00:02:03.227
You worship while you wait.

00:02:03.227 --> 00:02:05.552
You praise him through your pain.

00:02:05.552 --> 00:02:12.252
You keep showing up, even when you're unsure, because the one you're waiting on is worth it.

00:02:12.252 --> 00:02:15.962
Let's pray God.

00:02:15.962 --> 00:02:23.070
Waiting is hard, you know that, but help me trust you more than I trust my own timing.

00:02:23.070 --> 00:02:31.688
Let this season grow something deep inside me and when I'm tempted to give up, remind me that you're never late.

00:02:31.688 --> 00:02:33.272
Amen.

00:02:33.272 --> 00:02:47.183
This is Rick, and if you're waiting in a season like me, for real, like me, just know that God isn't stalling, he's shaping.

00:02:47.183 --> 00:02:49.069
See you tomorrow.

00:02:52.181 --> 00:02:53.026
That's all for now.
