When you're waiting for answers, carrying grief, or wondering why God seems to be taking so long? In this episode of _Perspectives Into Practice_, I sit down with my new friend, Hadassah, for a deeply encouraging conversation about trusting God when we don't understand His timing. Through her journey of losing her husband, walking through grief, battling anxiety, and learning to surrender control, she shares how God has faithfully taught her that peace isn't found in having all the answers, but in knowing the One who holds them. Together, we talk about God's perfect timing, learning to trust His character instead of our circumstances, and why surrender is something we practice moment by moment. Hadassah reminds us that healing is rarely a straight line, that God's presence is enough even in our hardest seasons, and that we don't have to understand everything in order to trust Him. We also discuss practical ways to stay grounded in seasons of uncertainty through Scripture, prayer, journaling, and choosing to remain connected to God throughout the day. Whether you're grieving, struggling with anxiety, waiting on unanswered prayers, or simply wondering what God is doing in your life, I pray this conversation reminds you that He is working in every detail, even when you can't yet see the whole picture. In this episode, we discuss: \- Trusting God's timing instead of our own \- Finding peace during grief and loss \- Surrendering control to God \- Overcoming anxiety through prayer and Scripture \- Learning to trust God without having all the answers \- Healing after the loss of a spouse \- God's faithfulness in every season \- The importance of daily rhythms of prayer, Bible study, and journaling \- Finding hope while waiting on God \- Living with continual surrender and abiding in Christ If this conversation encouraged you, I'd love to invite you to be a guest on _Perspectives Into Practice_. Every woman has a story of what God is teaching her right now, and I'd be honored to help you share yours.
