Waiting. Not sure it's enjoyable for anyone. While waiting happened a lot to God's people in scripture, it also happens often to us in life. Sophia Light once wrote, "Once the waiting is over, whatever we were waiting for pales in comparison to the prize of his presence, which we already won in the waiting. "
In Episode #36 of The UN-Perfect Podcast, I have a fun and meaningful conversation with author/poet Jody Lee Collins concerning our response and God's purposes for us while waiting.
While we discuss everything from my poor gardening skills to "Dexter," her new garden gnome, the meat of our discussion is about waiting spaces. Listen in to hear Jody and I talk through the following:
Jody Lee Collins is the author of three books, two of which are collections of her poetry. A retired teacher, Jody began writing when Smith Corona typewriters graced the desk of her 8th-grade typing class. Nowadays, you can find her work online at her website or on Substack. When she’s not visiting with grandkids or writing at her desk, she enjoys watching birds from the back deck and messing about in her Seattle land garden.
Visit Jody at her website, www..jodyleecollins.com, or on her Substack.
