Freedom Church ND

We explore the tension of waiting on God without losing our way, using Simeon's story to show how trust, listening, and timing shape a resilient faith. Delay is reframed as formation in the unseen, not failure in the seen.• waiting as a core part of life with Jesus• character revealed through delay and unmet expectations• God's appointed time and unseen process• Simeon's active waiting in community and worship• trusting God when feelings and logic disagree• learning to hear and heed the Holy Spirit• resisting bitterness while embracing God's timing• hope for spouses, children, and broken relationships

Waiting can feel like walking through fog with a map you can't read. We've been there—counting days, measuring progress, and wondering why others seem to sprint past while we stand still. Today we trace a clear path through that fog using Hannah's story in 1 Samuel 1, and we get honest about the questions that haunt the in‑between: when will this change and why hasn't it yet?We unpack how disappointment hardens into bitterness and why there's no such thing as keeping it private. You'll hear how subtle cultural currents shape our reactions, how comparison poisons joy, and how a small shift—rising to pray rather than retaliate—can change the atmosphere inside before anything changes outside. Hannah's honest prayer, her refusal to build identity around her pain, and her willingness to dedicate her answer back to God offer a model for modern life: careers on hold, finances tight, relationships tense, and prayers that feel unanswered.Together we lay out a three-part strategy for these seasons: reject bitterness before it takes root, don't let waiting silence your prayers, and never let answers replace your allegiance. We explore seeking, and knocking, and the peace that comes from seeing everything we hold—kids, work, influence, resources—as gifts to steward rather than trophies to own. Sometimes you receive exactly what you asked for; other times you receive formation in patience, trust, and hope. Either way, you win, and your heart stays aligned with the One who holds the timing.If this speaks to where you are, press play, share it with a friend who's waiting, and subscribe for more conversations that build a resilient, prayerful life. If it helped you, leave a review and tell us: what practice helps you wait well?

This is Week 1 of our series, God, Are You There?

We challenge the myth that security comes from getting more and show how the upside-down way of Jesus turns money into a tool for trust, impact and joy. We share eight counterintuitive principles, real stories, and a clear call to move from convenience to obedience in generosity.
