The wait may be long, but God’s memory is not short.
God wants you to hear this today —
“I have not forgotten about you.”
I know it has felt that way. The wait has gone on so long that you’ve started to wonder if I lost track of your file. If your prayers slipped through somewhere. If I’ve been answering everyone else’s while yours sit untouched.
What I’m building for you requires more time
– Jacqueline Whitney
I haven’t forgotten about you. Your name has been on my heart this entire time. I’ve been working on what you asked for. I’ve been arranging things you don’t even know I’m arranging.
I know it has been hard to hold onto faith when nothing seems to be moving. I know you’ve started to question whether you imagined the promise. I know you’ve been wondering if you’re the exception, the one who keeps waiting while everyone else gets their answer.
You’re not the exception. You’re the one being prepared for something specific. What I’m building for you requires more time than what I’ve built for others. It’s not because I love you less. It’s because I love you in a way that doesn’t rush what matters.
I have not forgotten about you. I never could.”
