Welcome HOPErs!
Hi there, and welcome to While You Wait Ministries. Before you scroll to the next thing, take a breath. Your waiting season is not wasted time—it's a divine classroom where God is preparing you for what's ahead. Here, we gather to remember that hope still works, healing still happens, and you're not waiting alone.
You're right where you're meant to be. Let's wait well together.
With love and expectancy,

Hope in Your House
By Rev. Dr. Lael C. Melville
God meets you where you live, not where you pretend to be. That truth alone can lift a weight off your shoulders today. You do not have to polish your life, your emotions, or your surroundings for God to show up. He comes right into the real places, the imperfect places, the lived-in spaces where your soul actually resides.
Jesus was not born in a perfect place. That was not an accident. God chose a humble, ordinary setting to remind us that holiness does not wait for perfection.
Your home, with its noise, its memories, its tension, and its tenderness, is still a place where God can move, speak, and heal.
Holy moments do not require perfect rooms. They require open hearts.
If peace feels missing in your home this season, God knows exactly how to restore it. His presence carries a calm that settles the atmosphere and softens even the hardest corners of our days.
Scripture reminds us of His promise.
“My peace I give to you.” John 14:27.
This peace is not fragile. It is not fleeting. It is a gift, meant to rest right where you live.
A Prayer for Today
Jesus, fill my home with Your peace. Let every room carry Your presence and calm. Restore what feels unsettled and breathe hope into every space where I dwell.
Action Step
Stand in one room of your home today and speak this aloud.
“Peace lives here. God lives here.”
Let those words shift the atmosphere.
