“Waiting on God”
Isaiah 40

Waiting is a reminder that I am not in control!

Isaiah 40

How are we strengthened?
	Experiencing comfort
	Recognizing small miracles
	Realizing self-reliance is empty
	Remembering that God cares

Waiting on God…
Doesn’t ensure getting what you’re waiting for
Changes a “not ever” to a “not yet, with hope”
Turns out to be one of God’s best tools in shaping us

Our God strengthens us in waiting!

4 ways to be miserable while waiting…
1.	Be content only when your circumstances are just right
2.	Compare yourself to others
3.	Go at it alone!
4.	Orient your life around pessimism

What are you waiting for?
