Trusting in the Waiting

clock ticking

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: Waiting is hard. And when it comes to waiting on God to work in our lives, it can feel like a painfully slow process.

Dannah Gresh: This is Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth, co-author of You Can Trust God to Write Your Story.

Nancy: In the life of Ruth, God’s work was apparent. He rescued her and her mother-in-law, Naomi, from famine. He provided for them after their husbands died. He brought Ruth and Boaz together, but He didn’t do it overnight. At times, Ruth must have felt that her story would never have a happy ending.

At one point Naomi counseled Ruth: “Wait, my daughter, until you know how the matter turns out; for the man will not rest until he has settled it today.” Christ, our heavenly Boaz, is at work on your behalf, and He won’t rest until He meets your needs and showcases His glory. Trust that God is working in your story as you wait.
