FAQ # 7 Patience in the Waiting

Many readers have written expressing frustration and concern that their prayers are not being answered...yet. I added the 'yet' because God always has a solution to our situation.

"Be still and know that I am God" (Psalm 46:10) is not a suggestion. It is a gentle, loving answer to the question, "How long do I wait?" and to the emotions we feel when we voice our frustration: "I've been praying about this for days (weeks, months, years)!"

I have a mental image that I rehearse in my mind when I, too, tire of waiting at not seeing an answer.
