Devotional: Womb Ready
Trusting God’s Timing Before the Promise
Hey Queens of Purpose,
Motherhood isn’t just about biology or due dates — it’s about preparing your heart and spirit to receive God’s promises in His perfect timing. Sometimes, waiting feels hard, especially when it’s a promise as precious as motherhood. But the Bible reminds us that God’s timing is never late. He is always working behind the scenes, preparing you for what’s ahead.
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart.” — Jeremiah 1:5 (NIV)
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” — Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)
“Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.” — Psalm 27:14 (NIV)
While waiting, lean into faith instead of frustration. Use this season to build spiritual strength and peace, knowing that God is aligning all the pieces even now.
