Why does the Lord sometimes delay instead of helping us right away? Today Emma Dotter is joined by faithful Watermark member Sara Fusco to talk through Psalm 70 and why sometimes God makes us wait. In a world of instant gratification, God often uses waiting to grow our patience, trust and dependence on Him. What if God asking us to wait is actually out of an overflow of his love for us? If God is asking us to wait, and God is always good, then waiting must be good too. God will always use waiting for our good and His glory as He uses it to make us more like Jesus Christ.
Additional Scripture Referenced:
Romans 5:3-5 – "hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us."
