Description

Have you ever felt like you’re just sitting in the waiting room of life, wondering what God wants you to do next? You pray, you listen, you wait—but the silence feels heavy. Maybe you’re desperate for clarity, asking, “Lord, just tell me what to do, and I’ll do it!”


In this heartfelt episode of Finding Faith Above, Shelby shares a personal conversation she had with her 19-year-old son about following God’s direction—even when it isn’t clear. Together, they wrestle with that deep longing to hear from Him, and the frustration that comes when God seems quiet. But through Scripture and reflection, Shelby reminds us that sometimes the waiting room isn’t punishment—it’s purpose.


You’ll hear how God’s consistency, faithfulness, and unchanging nature mean you’re never truly stuck or forgotten. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever—and even when you can’t hear His voice, He is still working in your life.


If you’ve been wondering where God is leading you, this episode will help you rest in His presence, trust His timing, and find peace knowing that right where you are might be exactly where He wants you to be.


✨ Listen in and be reminded: God hasn’t forgotten you in the waiting—He’s preparing your heart for what’s next.
