5 Points:
- Waiting is not weakness, it is active trust.
- Courage grows as we wait with faith.

- The one who waits in God’s timing walks in God’s victory.
Poem: The Waiting Heart
I sit at the edge of the morning.
The winds tug at my hope.
The days stretch longer than I planned.
But you tell me to stay still.
You breathe strength into the quiet.
My courage feels worn and thin.
My prayers echo in empty fields.
But your hand stitches courage again.
Your voice wraps courage in peace.
Your Spirit speaks into the waiting.
You do not waste the hidden hours.
You do not forget the still places.
You grow roots where no eyes see.
You build strength under the silence.
You prepare songs for the coming light.
I will not run ahead of your voice.
I will not turn away from your call.
Waiting is the work you gave me.
Waiting is the trust you build.
Waiting is the strength you bless.
Today I choose the slower way.
Today I plant my feet in trust.
You strengthen the heart that waits.
You fill the hands that stay open.
You finish the story you began.
