Where God's Word Meets Our Mess
Today's post—written by Shelby Abbott—is about the internal struggle of singles to find peace in the present. I did an interview with Shelby last year (which you can watch here if you missed it!) and got to learn about his journey of being single and stepping into ministry. Though this post focuses on singleness, it genuinely applies to all seasons of life. Enjoy, friends!

This post was written by author, speaker, and teacher Wendy Pope, who has written multiple books for women.

In this post, she provides three practical ways to wait with trust and hope in the Lord.
