    Have you looked in the mirror recently only to realize you don't recognize the woman staring back at you?  When your waiting season began, you started praying in faith and believing. Now you ask yourself: "How did I get here?" "Is this wait ever going to end?" Weary in hope, depleted of joy, and wondering if God even cares, you find yourself veering off course and living your life on autopilot. Instead of living in response to God, you are now moving in reaction to the circumstances around you. In this episode, you will be encouraged to take inventory of where you are and begin to move toward who God created and purposed you to be, in spite of your waiting.
