When I heard about the new book by Mark Vroegop, Waiting Isn’t a Waste: The Surprising Comfort of Trusting God in the Uncertainties of Life, I knew I needed to read it. The title alone spoke to my heart. Goodness, my life has its share of uncertainties! I want real comfort in the midst of those uncertainties.

From the start, I was in good company. Vroegop makes it clear that he, too, isn’t good at waiting. I appreciated the kinship he offered throughout the book.

He starts by defining waiting: Waiting on God is living on what I know to be true about God when I don’t know what’s true about my life.

He then unpacks how we can wait on God with faith.

Redefining a Healthy Body {Guest Post}

There were days when the best I could do was make my own coffee and walk to the mailbox. On those days, I learned to worship God and serve him with the smallest bits of energy I had. Those were days of training. Not training for a marathon. I'll tell you straight up, this body will never run a marathon. No, those days were training for days when I would have more energy, more health. I learned to steward my body for kingdom work. No matter how broken, my body will always be good enough for the work God has prepared for me. Today, I have the privilege of sharing how God gave me a new perspective on my healthy body at (in)courage.
