1. Waiting is essential to spiritual growth

Waiting is looking for something or someone with enthusiastic expectation.

“Biblical waiting is looking to God as He establishes our hearts to solely trust in Him.”

“This is the blessedness of waiting upon God, that it takes our eyes and our thoughts away from ourselves, even our needs and desires, and occupies us with our God.”
~Andrew Murray

How do I practice waiting well? 30-30-1
-Take 30 seconds of silence
-Take 30 seconds of thanking God for something
-Take one minute with a verse of the Bible

"God designed waiting in the world and in redemption so that he is central, not you and me. The frequency of waiting confronts our desire for control.”
~Mark Vroegop in “Waiting isn’t a Waste”
