Waiting is a sustained effort to stay focused on God through prayer and belief.

The next time you are called to suffer, pay attention. It may be the closest you'll ever get to God.

How we handle our tough times stays with us for a long time.

Jesus said, "My Father is the gardener...He trims and cleans every branch that produces fruit so that it will produce even more fruit".

Jesus tends to his people individually. He personally sees to our needs. We all receive Jesus' touch. We experience his care.

Though we may not be able to see His purpose or His plan, the Lord of heaven is on His throne and in firm control of the universe and our lives.

God is God. He knows what he is doing. When you can’t trace his hand, trust his heart.
