We’ve all found ourselves between where we are and where we want to be. That’s why the message of While You Wait is crucial—the decisions we make today will determine what kind of lives we live tomorrow. What matters to God is not just that we wait but how we wait.
Do we spend our time fearful and anxious, pursuing everything we think is urgent and nothing truly important? Or do we press into God, allow him to grow our character, and learn from whatever season of waiting we find ourselves in? What happens if we invite God to refine and prepare us as we experience His timing?
In While You Wait, Jerry Meek, the CEO and Founder of Desert Star Construction and Glorious Reflections, helps us recognize that our obstacles in the waiting are opportunities for a more significant victory, greater freedom, a higher purpose, and ultimately a more extraordinary relationship with God. Together we will focus on the magnitude of our God, not the size of our struggles.
“There’s no one better to help you discover ways to reflect the Glory of God while ou wait than Jerry Meek. Why? Because his life is truly dedicated to becoming a glorious reflection.” –Dr. John C. Maxwell, No. 1 New York Times bestselling author, internationally recognized leadership expert, and speaker
