In this special Christmas meditation, Jaime invites you to pause and embrace the holy work of waiting during Advent. In a world wired for instant gratification, waiting can feel like a burden, but Jaime reveals how the entire Gospel story&mdash;and the Christmas season itself&mdash;is steeped in patience. She challenges the fear that God&rsquo;s silence means He is absent, offering a fresh perspective on how to trust His plan when the answer hasn't come yet. Drawing from Biblical Christmas stories, Jaime explores the tension of waiting on God's promises. She reflects on the 400 "silent years" before Christ's birth and the incredible suspense of Mary&rsquo;s pregnancy, illustrating how God is often working behind the scenes long before we see the results. She also cautions against taking "spiritual shortcuts"&mdash;like Abraham and Sarah did&mdash;urging listeners to trust God&rsquo;s perfect timing rather than settling for less than His best in their relationships or careers just to end the wait. If you are struggling with unanswered prayers, loneliness, or the weight of past mistakes this holiday, this episode offers a gentle message of Christmas hope and redemption. Jaime reminds us that God delights in blessing us right in the "messy middle" of our circumstances. Tune in to shift your focus from the frustration of delay to the peace of Jesus, finding courage in surrender and the assurance that God is actively working on your behalf this Christmas.Get "Wonder of the Greatest Gift" advent book with ornaments by Ann Voskamp (mentioned in this episode)&nbsp; <a href="https://christianbooks.today/products/wonder-of-the-greatest-gift-an-interactive-family-celebration-of-advent">here</a>!
