While We Wait - Living in Expectancy for Christ's Return (For Women)Sample

Day 11 – Grow While We Wait

Have you ever heard the phrase, “Waiting is not wasting”? It reminds me that while we wait for Christ’s return, God desires for us to keep growing in spiritual fruit and maturing in His Word. Waiting isn’t idle. Instead, it strengthens our character and deepens our resolve. In the parable, the wise bridesmaids were ready when the Bridegroom came, which shows us the importance of being prepared and steadfast in the wait. Sis, let your waiting be a season of growth, not idleness.

Reflection Questions:

1. How can you use this season of waiting to grow in spiritual maturity and deepen your walk with Christ?

2. What specific “fruits of the Spirit” do you need to cultivate more deliberately while we wait?

3. In what ways can you turn your waiting into preparation, rather than idleness?

Closing Prayer:

“Lord, thank You for reminding me that waiting is not wasting. Help me to use this season to grow in Your Word, bear fruit, and strengthen my character. Teach me to wait well, with a heart that is ready for Your return. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
