About this listen

Read by the author.

Waiting isn't a season. Waiting is life. The question is, Will you live in the wait?

We don't ever graduate from waiting. After one prayer is answered, a new one begins, putting us back in the "space between." Are you hoping for an illness to subside, a job to open up, a relationship to develop, or some other heartfelt transformation? This slow burn is the human experience—and the greatest invitation to become intimately acquainted with a faithful God.

Waiting is hard, but it's not a punishment; it's a process. God is not delaying; He's developing. He is not leaving you; He's loving you. He's saying, Come closer. Let me lead you into wonder and show you how you can live wholeheartedly right here, right now.

DawnCheré Wilkerson will speak strength to your soul and give you tools to

  • live confident that God is working more powerfully than you know;
  • wrestle with the question, What if what I hope for doesn't happen?;
  • find the purpose and life-giving moments he has for you now; and
  • view all of life as a joyful, soul-deepening, intimacy-building wait.

More strength, expectation, and patience are within your reach, even amid uncertainty and suffering. Lean into the work of the wait—the constant, steady, slow burn of faith and surrender to your ultimate source. And you'll discover the wonder of the wait—glimpses of heaven, a perfect love that changes you, and each step celebrated along the way.

Handwritten journal entries can be found in the audiobook companion PDF download.

I just want to express how deeply inspiring this book has been to my walk with God. It beautifully conveys the depth of His love and the comfort He provides, enabling us to live with peace even in the midst of life’s storms. You have powerfully illustrated how Scripture, and the stories throughout the Bible, continue to speak into our lives today.

Personally, I find myself in a season of waiting, and hearing how the living and active Word of God is shaping your family through your own journey of faith has been truly encouraging. It’s a powerful reminder of how being true, living sacrifices—fully surrendered to God—can transform our lives. I look forward to revisiting this message again and again, and sharing this beautiful testimony with others.
