Have you ever prayed for something with everything in you and nothing happened? In this message from our series "Everyday Presence: Life with the Holy Spirit," we explore what it means to trust God when healing doesn't come the way we expect. Walking through two powerful stories in Acts 9, we wrestle with the tension every believer faces: God still heals today, but sometimes He doesn't, at least not right away. Featuring a personal testimony about navigating chronic illness, unanswered prayer, and discovering that God isn't waiting at the finish line, but He's running the race with you. Whether you're in a miracle moment or a mourning moment, this message will encourage you to keep praying, keep believing, and to experience the presence of the Holy Spirit right in the middle of your waiting.
