Praise God for what He has done and is doing in your spiritual lives.
What a marvelous spiritual opportunity exists in waiting.
Indeed, endurance is not for everyone, it requires more than the grace of faith. It requires the gift of faith - a gift more astonishing to me than that of the named prophets who by faith were saved from the mouths of lions and the fiery furnace. God says of the nameless ones who patiently endured to the end, that they are the ones of whom the world is not worthy (Hebrews 11:36-40)
I am also reminded of Paul who by faith in Christ brought healing to many but was himself made to wait until he completed the race:
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. - 2 Cr 12:8-10
But, in the Spirit, I believe it shall be both - blessings in this world (but not too much or too little) - and eternal treasures for your endurance in faith.
Again, thank God for both of you!
