“Learning To Wait Right”

Just over a century ago, a trip from Chicago to Los Angeles by horse and wagon would take you five months – and that’s in good weather. Today, you can make the drive in twenty-eight hours, just over a day. A direct flight will get you there in 4 hours.

Yet, when traffic adds an hour to our roadtrip, or being rerouted adds an extra couple of hours to our plane ride, we get fussy, don’t we?

But, how would someone who had made the trip in a wagon feel if they experienced our flight delay? Do you think their mindset would be a little…less fussy? Do you think the way they’d wait for their plane would be different from the way we typically wait for ours?

Sometimes, we have no choice but to wait. However, we do have a choice when it comes to how we wait.

In the final message of our series Overflowing Hope, we’re steering into the reality of waiting, and allowing the Bible to instruct us on how to wait well during the most difficult seasons of life.
