Publisher's Description
Every woman struggles with times of waiting - for a spouse, a child, a job. In Wait and See, Wendy Pope guides readers to focus on the person of their faith rather than the object of their wait. Pope draws on the story of King David, who was anointed king nearly twenty years before he took his throne. A popular speaker with Proverbs 31 Ministries explores the life of King David as she helps women transform a difficult season of waiting into a sweet season with God.

“I’ve grown quite familiar with life’s waiting places. Marriage. Parenting six times over. Frightening diagnoses. In every case, the waiting and not knowing turned out to be the most painful part, by far. But what if it doesn’t have to be? What if the waiting room became a sacred classroom? With a wealth of personal experience and the wisdom of a lover of God’s Word, Wendy Pope will help you turn your waiting place to the place of peace and growth in the safety of God’s sure presence.”
“Wait and See is like a chocolate truffle—it must be savored, not devoured, to be fully appreciated. Wendy enables the reader to understand that waiting is not an obstacle to be overcome; rather it is a discipline to be embraced. She weaves sound biblical truths with human experiences to create a pathway for those struggling with the mysteries of waiting, offering practical steps to grasp the fullness of God’s purposes in our waits and even in our wilderness times.”
“From a Focus Group: “Wendy Pope writes with honesty and vulnerability. Her message in Wait and See is one that is sure to resonate with many women. One truth Wendy shares that found its way to my heart was when God appears to be silent, lean closer and press in harder, but never believe He doesn’t see or hear your cries. Every woman will be challenged to see her pauses and plans through a different lens. Truly uplifting!”
“I learned so many valuable lessons about being a woman who waits well from this book. Thank you, Wendy, for teaching me these principles and showing me how to better trust God and have confidence in His timing!”
“A diligent steward of Scripture, Wendy accurately and carefully handles the Word of God as she leads us in the journey of faith and trust in the Lord during the waiting seasons of our lives. Wait and See encourages us to be quietly and actively patient, to be productive, and to abide in the Lord and deepen our relationship with Him while we wait.”
“Until I read Wendy’s Wait and See, I really had no idea how to wait well. Wendy examines the waiting process and how to do it well with God at the center of it all. Even though waiting goes against this fast-paced impatient world, Wendy shows us through Scripture and real-life applications the step-by-step action plan for getting ourselves battle ready. Wait and See is a life-changing book that will help you see the purpose in your wait. Don’t wait to read it!”
“Right from the beginning of Wait and See, I was captivated by Wendy’s transparency and humility. Her vulnerability and insight into God’s Word allowed me to examine areas in my life where I have replaced worshipping God with the object of my wait. Wendy’s love for God and His Word becomes contagious as you read through Wait and See, and it made me want to dive deeper into the Bible. I have no doubt that Wait and See will definitely become one of those books you read and reread throughout your Christian walk, and it will be the one you will to recommend to others.”
“Most of us have experienced the struggle of wanting something to happen immediately while waiting on God to unfold His plans. If you’re in that place now, Wait and See will show you you’re not alone! Wendy’s transparency from her own difficult wait will help take the sting, questioning, and anxiety out of your weary heart. Wendy’s book will help keep your faith strong when the wait makes you feel weak.”
“As a woman who winces when I’m asked to wait, I was encouraged and inspired from the first page of this book to the last! Wendy Pope has skillfully woven together a wealth of Scripture with relevant, real-life stories and powerful passages from the psalms of King David. Wait and See goes deep and wide, exposing our need for God and assuring us of His strength. What a comfort to know we never wait alone!”
“Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times bestselling author and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries “Like sweet balm to your soul, Wendy Pope guides you through waiting as if it is the nearest and only way to be in touch with your heavenly Father. If your dream or greatest desire is not yet fulfilled, this is required reading. I absolutely loved this book.”
“Liz Curtis Higgs, bestselling author of Bad Girls of the Bible “Wait and See is a welcomed equipping tool to help us find security in what can be uncertain times of waiting. Wendy builds from biblical truths and applies them to contemporary stories, including her own. By His grace, God has clearly called Wendy to this work by allowing her to live it out. I’m thankful for her faithfulness and willingness to wait and see His plan for this book.”
