Slow Burn: The Work and Wonder of the Wait

Dawnchere Wilkerson

Waiting isn't a season. Waiting is life. The question is, Will you live in the wait?

We don't ever graduate from waiting. After one prayer is answered, a new one begins, putting us back in the "space between." Are you hoping for an illness to subside, a job to open up, a relationship to develop, or some other heartfelt transformation? This slow burn is the human experience--and the greatest invitation to become intimately acquainted with a faithful God.

Waiting is hard, but it's not a punishment; it's a process. God is not delaying; He's developing. He is not leaving you; He's loving you. He's saying, Come closer. Let me lead you into wonder and show you how you can live wholeheartedly right here, right now.

DawnCheré Wilkerson will speak strength to your soul and give you tools to

  • live confident that God is working more powerfully than you know;
  • wrestle with the question, What if what I hope for doesn't happen?;
  • find the purpose and life-giving moments he has for you now; and
  • view all of life as a joyful, soul-deepening, intimacy-building wait.

More strength, expectation, and patience are within your reach, even amid uncertainty and suffering. Lean into the work of the wait--the constant, steady, slow burn of faith and surrender to your ultimate source. And you'll discover the wonder of the wait--glimpses of heaven, a perfect love that changes you, and each step celebrated along the way.
