Most of us don’t like waiting. The longer we wait, whether that’s for a job, an answer, or perhaps for God to fix a problem, often, the more anxious we feel.

In this episode, Jennifer shares some truths that can help us wait confidently and courageously, knowing that God is loving and faithful and will perfect His plans for us.
