You are waiting for that promotion that you deserve but someone else got it. You are hoping that you will be healed from that illness but it seems like your symptoms remain the same.

It may take some time to see the answers for the things we are waiting and hoping for but it doesn't mean that God is not working on your behalf to make things happen.

It is easy to become discouraged when you don't see the hand of God working on you behalf, but you cannot give up. You have to keep praying, hoping and waiting for God to make things happen in His perfect time.

Pray and ask God to help you to pitch your tent in the land of hope!
