When tragedy strikes or injustice hits close to home, our instinct is often to act in anger. But Scripture calls us to wait.

Many of us have lived out Elihu’s role—young, sincere, but unseasoned. God doesn’t require perfection in our ministry, but He calls us to grow through experience, listen before we speak, and let wisdom come from a life rooted in Him.

We are so conditioned to think that we must figure it out and be self-sufficient, yet time and time again we are told to place our trust firmly in the Lord and not lean on our understanding.
