If You’re Waiting, You’re Also Grieving This Changed My Life, with Emilie McCormack

    • Christianity

What are you waiting for? Waiting can be brutal and beautiful. I know it has been for me. 
"If you're waiting, you're grieving." -Anonymous 
I am in an intense season of waiting right now that is paired with intense grief. It has been a million times harder than I ever thought. But it has also been a really sweet season where God has met me in the midst of the unknown and in the middle of my grief. 
The waiting is never wasted. There is joy to be found in the middle of the waiting. There is comfort in the waiting. I am seeing over and over again, there is so much to learn on the journey even when the future is completely unknown. 
This is what I feel like God spoke to me this week, and I feel it is also for you: 
He sees you. He knows your longings & pain. And He cares. 
I pray you, and I, believe it today. 

This Advent season, two of my favorite people to follow on Instagram are Sara Hagerty & Jodie Berndt. I  hope you will be encouraged as you follow along as they reflect on this season of waiting called Advent.
