What Nature Trails Teach Us About Waiting on God

What if trust isn't about getting what you want when you want it—but about learning a path that never becomes a dead end?

In this episode, I use the imagery of a nature trail to explore what it means to truly trust God when you're waiting, when answers haven't come, or when the outcome isn't what you prayed for. We'll walk through the three movements of trust: choosing the path, learning to wait while the Holy Spirit intercedes, and relying on God's loving intentions even when we can't see the full picture.

This isn't a pep talk about positive thinking. It's an honest conversation about backtracking from the paths of anxiety and control, about the growth that happens in the waiting, and about believing that God's eyes search for our hearts—not our religious performance.

If you're standing at a signpost with arrows pointing toward worry, overthinking, and “what if” scenarios, this episode offers you a different direction. The way of trust is firm ground beneath your feet, even when everything else feels like shifting sand.
