## Resource

What do you do when you are still planting, still praying, still showing up — but nothing seems to be moving on your timeline? In this Extra Shot of Grace in the Grind , we press deeper into the tension from Cup 8: what it means to stay faithful in the middle when God’s “due season” does not match our deadline. Building from Galatians 6:9 , Hebrews 11 , 1 Corinthians 3:6 , Psalm 127 , and David’s desire to build the temple, this episode confronts one of the hardest parts of faith: surrendering good desires. Not sinful desires. Not selfish ambition. Good things — a stronger family, a healthier home, fruitful ministry, a future that honors God — and learning to release the demand that God bring them about on our schedule. Because due season is not our deadline. This episode is for the weary planter, the unseen preparer, and the believer who is tired of doing good without seeing the harvest yet. Sometimes God does not give us the finished product. Sometimes He gives us the field. Sometimes He does not call us to build the temple — He calls us to gather the stone. If you are waiting on God and wondering whether the delay means you are doing something wrong, this Extra Shot is a reminder: delay is not disobedience, preparation is not wasted, and faithfulness in this season still matters. You do not have to carry the weight of “what’s next.” You just have to be faithful with “what’s now.” Links & Resources Arrow & Roots Coffee Co. https://ArrowandRootsCoffeeCo.com Coffee Date — Arrow & Roots Coffee Co. https://ArrowandRootsCoffeeCo.com/products/coffee-date Support Arrow & Roots / Buy Me a Coffee https://buymeacoffee.com/ArrowandRoots Grace in the Grind Podcast https://rss.com/podcasts/grace-in-the-grind-pod1/ Coffee Break: Biblical Truth on Parenting — Apple…
