You’ve prayed. You’ve done what you know to do. You’ve tried to be faithful.
But the answer still hasn’t come.The person hasn’t changed.The door hasn’t opened.
When you’re used to making things happen, waiting can feel a lot like nothing is happening.
But what if you’re measuring growth by the wrong thing?
In this conversation, I’m joined by licensed professional counselor + Plant + Water founder Emily Johnson to talk about what happens beneath the surface when we find ourselves in a season we can’t fix, control or hurry through.
We talk about what waiting can reveal in us, why roots are growth too, and the difference between faithfully tending what God has entrusted to us + trying to produce an outcome that was never ours to control.
And we come back to one question I think is worth carrying into whatever you’re waiting on:
What is mine to tend...and what is God’s to grow?
Because what if the evidence that God is working isn’t always that your circumstances are changing?
What if sometimes the evidence is that YOU are changing?
