1 00:00:08,165 --> 00:00:16,285 Speaker 1: Life Audio from the Salvation Army Welcome to Heartbeat. Are 2 00:00:16,325 --> 00:00:19,645 Speaker 1: you currently in that difficult and anxious space of waiting? 3 00:00:20,525 --> 00:00:24,445 Speaker 1: Waiting can feel heavy our mind's race. We imagine the worst. 4 00:00:24,765 --> 00:00:27,245 Speaker 1: We wish we could just skip ahead to the outcome, 5 00:00:27,685 --> 00:00:30,565 Speaker 1: but scripture shows us a different way to wait. Think 6 00:00:30,605 --> 00:00:34,125 Speaker 1: about Mary, the mother of Jesus. She was given incredible 7 00:00:34,165 --> 00:00:36,644 Speaker 1: news that she would give birth to the savior of 8 00:00:36,685 --> 00:00:40,645 Speaker 1: the world. But knowing the promise didn't mean everything happened instantly. 9 00:00:41,005 --> 00:00:45,165 Speaker 1: There was still time, months of waiting, months of trusting. 10 00:00:45,765 --> 00:00:48,644 Speaker 1: But during this time, she stays close to God. She 11 00:00:48,765 --> 00:00:51,805 Speaker 1: praises him, she walks and step with him even before 12 00:00:51,845 --> 00:00:54,885 Speaker 1: the promise is fully realized. Maybe you're in a waiting 13 00:00:54,885 --> 00:00:58,285 Speaker 1: season right now. If so, take heart. Waiting with God 14 00:00:58,405 --> 00:01:02,485 Speaker 1: is never wasted time. Sometimes the miracle isn't just the answer, 15 00:01:02,765 --> 00:01:06,285 Speaker 1: it's the person we're becoming while we trust in Him. 16 00:01:06,325 --> 00:01:10,365 Speaker 1: For more episodes of Heartbeat, visit Salvation Army Radio dot org. 17 00:01:13,045 --> 00:01:15,845 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for listening to Heartbeat.
