Rebecca George: Really Thrive In The Waiting Time

Have you ever been disappointed by an unmet desire or longing? Rebecca George talks about her latest book, "You’re Not Too Late." Rebecca shares her personal story of waiting and longing, what led her to write the book, and the message she hopes will encourage every woman who feels like she’s behind or that her moment has passed.

We get real about the universal experience of waiting—waiting for dreams to come true, for prayers to be answered, or for healing to arrive. Rebecca gently reminds us that everyone is waiting on something, and that doesn’t mean God has forgotten us. Instead, she points us to the importance of trusting God's timing and learning to wait well.

This episode is a tender and empowering conversation about:

  • Holding both joy and longing at the same time

  • Recognizing when good desires become idols

  • Embracing the blessings in your current season

  • Understanding that someone else's win isn’t your loss

  • Taking the next faithful step God is calling you to

Memorable Quotes from Rebecca:

  • “To elevate that thing to a place of prominence meant for God alone, is how I define idolatry.”

  • “I don’t want to miss out on how God is at work and the blessings He’s given in this season despite the thing I want.”

  • “Our powerful, merciful, Holy God can handle what you’re walking through; can handle where your heart is.”

  • “Her win, her blessing from the Lord is not my loss.”

  • “The reality of our longing and our lives here in a broken world are, we’ll bump up against those … I feel this and that at the same time.”

  • “Be about whatever God is doing in their life.”

  • “Nobody is more sensitive to the grief that accompanies their longing than them.”

  • “Take the first step. Do the next thing that the Lord has prompted you to do.”

Whether you’re in a season of waiting, wrestling with unmet desires, or trying to figure out your next step—this conversation will remind you: you’re not too late, and God’s timing is always right on time.
