Episode 417 //Why Your Waiting Season Is Always Worth It as a Believer—and 4 Easy Ways to Stay Courageous! [“Waiting on God” Bible Study and Devotional]

🎙️ Welcome to Episode 417 of Circle Time for the Soul!

Hey Sis, Happy Wednesday!

Are you checking in with yourself today? In this midweek moment, we’ll explore how self-reflection aligns with Christ’s call to love ourselves and others. Based on Mark 12:30-31.

In today’s episode, we’ll reflect on:
✨ The biblical affirmation: I am not what I have or buy. My identity is in Christ—and Christ alone.
✨ Key lessons from 1 Thessalonians 5:14-15 on community, patience, and love.
✨ Dr. Charles Stanley’s devotional, "Waiting on God: Surviving the Wait with Courage." Learn the 4 truths you need to endure tough waiting seasons with strength.

Take time to reflect, and let’s pray together for courage and faith in this season of waiting.

🎙 Scripture Study:
We’re diving into 1 Thessalonians 5:14-15 for insights into how to:
✅ Encourage the disheartened.
✅ Help the weak.
✅ Be patient with everyone.

God calls us to live in community with grace and purpose, reminding us that growth often happens through serving others.

🙌 Today’s Takeaway:
Sis, waiting isn’t wasted when you trust God’s timing. He’s refining you for His best. Let’s lean into courage, fight the spiritual battles, and express gratitude through it all. 💪
