When God puts His children in a waiting room, it can be the best place to stop and learn more about Him. Sharla Fritz said these waiting periods are where He teaches us about patience, where He molds our character, and where He draws us closer to Him. Sharla is the author of eight Bible studies and a public speaker. She describes waiting as a “tool to grow our faith and to transform our hearts.” In our modern culture, we are used to getting what we want instantly. But it’s hard to build character through instant gratification. Sharla discusses some of the lessons we can learn from waiting for God’s answer and how we can embrace true rest and reliance on Him during those sometimes very difficult seasons of patience and trust.

TAKEAWAYS
A delay can be a blessing because it forces us to depend on God and we can always pray while we are waiting
Just because God doesn’t answer our prayers or answer them quickly does not mean He doesn’t love us, but He knows the best for us
Sometimes God has different plans for us that are better than what we desire or can imagine
The children of Israel waited to be freed from slavery for 400 years

It is often the gap periods of waiting in our lives that are the most difficult - anxiety and anger can set in, and we may find ourselves going down a negative and destructive path. This very issue is something that Mark Vroegop, the lead pastor of College Park Church, set out to tackle in his book, Waiting Isn’t a Waste: The Surprising Comfort of Trusting God in the Uncertainties of Life. Mark talks about waiting on God in those “gap moments,” and trusting His provision. Waiting is beautiful, promised, and a biblical command, he says. He also describes it as a “hopeful position that we can live in.” Waiting doesn’t have to be painful - it can be a major growing season for our faith in Jesus.

TAKEAWAYS
Every person has to discern about when it’s time to wait and when it’s time to move
Waiting confronts our desire for control
Waiting is part of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ
Gaps are meant to remind us that we are NOT God and that we CAN trust Him
