Patience

Have you ever prayed for God to change other people because it’s just too challenging to be in a relationship with them? Have you ever experienced relationship exhaustion because you’re tired of trying to help them be better? The hard truth is that changing them is not our battle to fight. In this study, we will learn how God gives us examples, tools, and encouragement to help us navigate dealing with difficult people.


How to Deal With Difficult People

Joseph’s story begins like so many of ours: in a place off the beaten path, surrounded by people who did not believe the magnitude of his calling. However, all of that changed.

In the midst of a long, painful season of waiting, I wrote a song called “While I Wait.” This five-part devotional series explores the root of the song.

God is always with us in the wait, and I pray you will feel Him draw near to you over these next five days.  Waiting with you, Lincoln Brewster

We’ve all been there, done that. We’ve all waited in long lines heading nowhere fast. Waited for an event, promise, or person to come into view that we had been tarrying for. However, what if Jesus considers our meantime an opportunity for the Holy Spirit’s presence, power, and joy to be realized in our lives? He does. Let’s be encouraged from His Word, then hurry up and wait!
