It is in the waiting that we can actually slow down, breath, and take the time to not only hear from Him, but to be prepared for what is to come.

This is not what I dreamed when I was fifteen, but the same God who led us into the wilderness will lead us out once again

We want to get to the place God has prepared for us, but we get frustrated with the journey and the struggles along the way. We get a sense of unfulfilled expectations.
