Do you ever feel that things are falling into place for everyone around you, while your wheels are spinning but you're going nowhere? In this book subtitled, "what to do while you're waiting for your breakthrough", Heather Day gives some suggestions for turning a time of waiting into a time to grow, to learn and to listen. Her most important advice is to realize that sometimes it's just not your turn -- but you can still applaud and be happy for others.
Much of Heather's advice deals with adjusting our attitude, letting God transform our minds. For example, instead of dwelling on what we do not have, or haven't accomplished, look around and really see what we have already been given as disciples of Christ. She stresses setting goals and working toward them in small steps and developing positive relationships with others.
Each chapter ends with a Bible memory verse, and some discussion questions which could easily be used for journaling.
VERDICT: 3.5 STARS. The author is a biracial millennial, so I'm in a very different place than she is, and I didn't agree with all of her opinions. Putting that aside, there were many interesting statistics and worthwhile recommendations.
