Barb Roose: If Only God Would Send out Patience via Overnight Delivery

"What if your waiting room season included this prayer: 'God, while I'm waiting, You have permission to work through me to help others.'
 
 For example, if you’re waiting on God to bring back the prodigal in your life, you can invest in young people at your church or in your community. While you’re waiting on God for a baby or grandchild, you can volunteer at your local school or make meals for new parents. For someone like me who is praying for God to bring a future spouse, I began meeting with another single woman at our favorite ice cream stand once a month to pray for her. Letting God work through us while we're waiting encourages us and actually makes us stronger during the wait."
