In a world that constantly celebrates big wins and life milestones, it’s easy to overlook the depth found in the quieter seasons. But those in-between moments—the ones without applause or headlines—carry weight. They mold our character, test our patience, and deepen our faith in ways the spotlight never could. These seemingly ordinary stretches are often where God does His most personal work, preparing us for what’s ahead. Don’t underestimate the significance of the silence between the breakthroughs.
