Description: Send us a textThis episode is also on YouTube: Seasoned Dialogue I have a heartfelt story to share with you. There was a time when I was desperate for the fulfillment of my prayers, only to realize, when they were granted, that I wasn't ready to handle the outcome. This epiphany led to a deeper, more introspective exploration of patience and contentment. In our conversation, we pull back the layers of these virtues and how they're intertwined with our spiritual relationship with God. We also explore the idea of God withholding our wishes not out of denial, but as a form of protective love, and the need for ongoing dialogue with the Divine beyond our moments of desire.In the later part of our discussion, we explore the significance of God's timing and the wisdom in His design. We unravel the reasons behind unanswered prayers and the transformative power of waiting. Together, we delve into the seeming paradox of our spiritual selves, often only turning to God in times of need, much like children with their parents. This episode is an invitation for all of us to reflect on these truths, to exercise patience and trust in divine timing, and to embrace each moment as an opportunity for personal growth and understanding.
