Krystal Ribble

Whatever season of waiting you're in, Krystal Ribble offers comfort from a Christian perspective in Love Me in the Waiting Trusting God's Purpose When You're Longing for What's Next. Stand firm in your faith like Noah. God is with you, protects you, even during tumultuous times. Be patient like Abraham and Joseph. Yes, it may take years to see your prayers answered, but God has heard these. Be faithful like Jacob and Moses whatever the activities you perform as if you do these for the Lord. Be courageous like David and Daniel. Giants will fall by the hand of God and earthly kings will acknowledge the power and sovereignty of the one and true King in heaven. Be prayerful like Job and Habbakuk. Be in constant communion with God, despite difficulties, sorrow, and suffering. Mary and Martha saw Jesus Christ wake up their friend Lazarus. God is present and active.
