The Weight of the Wait: Why the Pause is Powerful

Bestfriend, let’s be real — waiting seasons are heavy. They stretch you. They test you. They make you wonder if God even hears you. But here’s what I’ve learned: the wait is not wasted.

The pause isn’t punishment — it’s preparation. Waiting seasons are where God builds your faith muscle, aligns your steps, and shapes your character. It’s where you learn to be still enough to hear His whisper.

Think about it: David wasn’t crowned king the same day he was anointed. Joseph didn’t step into the palace the same day he dreamed. And Jesus Himself waited 30 years before stepping into His ministry. The wait is where God works on us so we can carry what’s coming.

So if you’re in the hallway season right now, don’t despise it. Don’t rush it. Ask yourself: What is God building in me while I wait? Because Bestfriend, the pause is powerful.
