In a world that moves at lightning speed, learning to wait on God can feel like a challenge. Eileen Cramer shared a message that explores the importance of trusting God’s timing, even when we feel stuck or discouraged. We often wait for healing, restored relationships, or fulfilled dreams, and it’s easy to become impatient or try to take matters into our own hands. But true rest and strength come from God alone. By leaning on His promises, focusing on eternity, and taking care of our souls, we can learn to wait well, trusting in His purpose and power while staying connected in faith and community.
