What is God Doing While We are Waiting?- A Look at Jonah- Episode #18

Last week we discussed how to find strength while we are waiting.  This week are are diving in deeper, discussing what God could be doing while you are waiting.  We are taking a deeper look into the story of Jonah.  Many of you know the story of Jonah and it may be easy to skim through, but today we will challenge you to examine how God could have been working on Jonah while he was running and even more when he was in a period of waiting.

This week’s memory verse is Proverbs 3:5-6 where it says:

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart

    and lean not on your own understanding; 

in all your ways submit to him,

    and he will make your paths straight.

Many of you may have heard this verse many times and have the tendency to just skim through it.  Make an effort not to.  I so distinctly remember going to the hospital in labor with my first little girl and saying aloud, “I trust in you Lord with all of my heart.  I will not lean on my own understanding.  In all my ways I will acknowledge you and you will make my path straight.”  Pray and say back the scriptures.  This helps them resonate in your heart and become a part of you and the things you are going through right now.
