What makes someone feel safe?

Not just physically safe, but emotionally and spiritually safe.

In this episode of Butterfly Thoughts with Kelly Savage, we explore one of the most healing gifts we can offer another person: acceptance without judgment. While acceptance doesn’t mean approving of everything or abandoning truth, it does mean seeing people as God sees them—with dignity, compassion, grace, and love.

Kelly shares a personal story about how acceptance helped break down walls she didn’t even realize she was carrying and how God often uses people to help us experience His love in tangible ways.

Join us as we reflect on what it means to create safe spaces for others, trust God with their journey, and extend the same grace we’ve received ourselves.

The 3 R’s for peace while waiting………..

Resting in God While Waiting for His Plan to Unfold ✨🙏

Life is filled with moments of waiting—waiting for a new job, waiting for healing, waiting for direction. During these times, it can be challenging to maintain hope and patience. However, the Bible teaches us that resting in God while we wait is crucial. This rest is not about inactivity but about a deep, trusting reliance on Him. Here’s how you can embrace this restful waiting, anchored in prayer, faith, and God’s promises.

The Power of Prayer 🙏

Prayer is our direct line to God. It is the means by which we communicate our hopes, fears, and desires. When we are in a season of waiting, prayer becomes our anchor. Philippians 4:6-7 encourages us, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

In prayer, we find solace and strength. By laying our concerns at His feet, we allow God to work in and through our situations. It is in these moments of sincere communication that we often find clarity and peace.

Resting in Him 🕊️

Resting in God means trusting Him completely, even when we don’t understand His plan. This rest is about surrendering our timelines and expectations to His perfect will. Matthew 11:28-30 offers an invitation: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

To rest in God is to let go of our need for control and to place our burdens in His capable hands. It is believing that He is working all things together for our good, even when we cannot see the full picture.

Faith: The Foundation of Waiting 🌱

Faith is essential during times of waiting. Hebrews 11:1 defines faith as “confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” It is this faith that enables us to trust God’s timing and His ways, even when they differ from our own.

Faith reminds us that God is faithful to His promises. Isaiah 40:31 assures us, “But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” Our faith is strengthened when we recall how God has been faithful in the past and trust that He will be faithful again.

Clinging to His Promises 📖

The Bible is filled with promises from God, each a testament to His unchanging nature and unfailing love. During waiting periods, these promises provide comfort and hope. Jeremiah 29:11 is a powerful reminder: “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

God’s promises are a source of encouragement, assuring us that He is with us and for us. By meditating on His Word and holding onto His promises, we can navigate the waiting with a sense of peace and purpose.

Practical Steps to Rest in God 🌿

  1. Create a Prayer Routine: Dedicate specific times each day to pray. Consistent prayer helps cultivate a deeper relationship with God and keeps you focused on His presence.
  2. Engage with Scripture: Spend time reading and meditating on the Bible. Let God’s Word remind you of His promises and faithfulness.
  3. Practice Gratitude: Even in the waiting, find things to be thankful for. Gratitude shifts our focus from what we lack to what we have, fostering a positive and trusting outlook.
  4. Join a Community: Surround yourself with fellow believers who can encourage and pray for you. Community support is invaluable during times of waiting.
  5. Embrace Stillness: Take moments to be still before God. In the busyness of life, intentional stillness allows you to hear His voice more clearly.

Conclusion 🌟

Waiting is never easy, but resting in God transforms the experience. Through prayer, we connect with Him; through faith, we trust Him; and through His promises, we find hope. As we learn to rest in God, we discover that His timing is perfect and His plans are always for our good. Embrace this season of waiting as an opportunity to grow closer to Him, trusting that He is at work in ways beyond our understanding.
