Welcome to 15 Minutes in the Word with New York Times best-selling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her series, When God, When?

Waiting. When we find ourselves living in a season of waiting, it can be frustrating.

We may struggle to keep our patience and want to try to make things happen on our own.

We may even go to God and ask him, when are you going to answer this prayer?

No matter how long the wait, God always has a good plan at the right time.

Today, Joyce wants to encourage us that choosing to trust him in those waiting times

will prepare us for when God's answers do come.

Now here's Joyce with the series, When God, Win.

Last night I taught on when God, when.

Today I'm going to teach on why God, why.

Seems like we spend more time winning and whying that we do anything else.

I don't understand why that happened.

I don't understand God why my friend has only been saved two weeks

and she's already had a great Christian man

asked her to go out and I've been serving you for 30 years. I've never had a date.

Why, God, why? Don't you love me? What's wrong with me?

I must be ugly. I need to lose weight. I don't know. Well, I don't know what the problem is.

You need to just be saying if I'm supposed to get married, the right guy will come along

at the right time.

And in the meantime, I've already got my guy Jesus to walk with and to serve and to love.

But boy, we just want to know stuff, don't we?
