And the place between His answers can feel like a wasteland where dreams--and faith--go to die. When we're waiting, we wonder, "Why?", "Why me?", and "How long?" But the truth? . . . When God says, "Wait," He doesn't tell us for how long. When God says, "Wait," we face one of life's greatest tests. When God says, "Wait," we have decisions to make. When God says, "Wait," we can control only two things: how we wait, and who we become along the way.

They might even help you learn to enjoy the ride.
