Welcome to Week 3 of Wait and See! I hope y’all had a fabulous weekend! Guess what! It’s a shortened, 3-day OBS week! We’ll only be sharing here today, tomorrow & Wednesday. And then … we can all be thankful for some extra time to rest and relax … or for my American friends, time to eat all the turkey and stuffing. Uh, Yum!
But although it’s a shorter week, we’ll still have TONS of GREAT STUFF you don’t want to miss!
For starters, check out our Verse of the Week, which is one of my favorites. Proverbs 3:5 (NIV) says:
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.”

Y’all, how comforting is it to know that even though we don’t always understand the situations we’re in, or reasons why things happen, God DOES. Like when we had a 1-1/2-year-old and a 2-day-old child, and our rental was sold out from under us and we had no idea where we would go … but God DID. And despite our uncertainty, it all worked out for the best.
But if you’re anything like me, sometimes in the midst of a wait, living out our verse for this week can be difficult. That’s why I love the 3 useful weapons Wendy Pope describes in this week’s video below, to help equip us through our wait! Take a look ...
