Waiting is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.

Not because I didn't believe.

But because I wanted answers.

I wanted clarity.

I wanted things to change quickly.

Instead, I found myself in a season of waiting.

Looking back, I realize that waiting taught me lessons I couldn't have learned any other way.

3 things waiting taught me:

1. Not everything needs to happen immediately
Some things grow with time.

2. Peace comes when I stop trying to control everything
I learned to focus on what I can do today.

3. Growth often happens in hidden seasons
Just because nothing looks different on the outside doesn't mean nothing is happening.

Today, I still don't enjoy waiting.

But I no longer see it as wasted time.

Sometimes the waiting season is where strength is built.
