There’s a tension every one of us feels, whether in life or in business: the gap between what is and what we hope will be. It’s in the unanswered prayer, the promotion that hasn’t come, the deal that still lingers unsigned, the dream that feels perpetually just out of reach. We hate the gap. We want a resolution. But here’s the inconvenient truth: waiting is not just part of the human story; it’s part of God’s design.
Psalm 27:14 nails it to the wall: “Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.” That’s not a casual suggestion. It’s a rally cry. David repeats the command because he knew firsthand how much courage it takes to wait without caving to fear or forcing outcomes.
Waiting is not a weakness. It’s strength under tension.
