"Ok. But, when?" Aight so boom, last week we discussed being in a season of waiting. Now, waiting doesn't mean sitting there and doing absolutely nothing. When you're waiting in the doctor's office, do you just stare at the ceiling? No, you're either reading the magazines they provide, scrolling through your phone, or thinking about your next move.

Photo: My Mama If you are occupying your waiting time while in the doctor's office, why not apply that same concept to your everyday life and BUILD on your dreams while you wait. God is the doctor. While you're in his waiting room, you need to be thinking about your next move. Did ya'll like that or was that too much? Sorry. The black church is jumping out of me.

That's some different kind of drive & determination. We will not be discussing that kind here, today. Do you ever feel like you just have about one more fail left in you before you give up? Or like you must be doing something wrong because you're not where you thought you should be? Or that you're just not getting anywhere so what's the point anyway, right? Yeah. Same here.
