Host: Dan Panetti Last week we talked about the decision-making matrix - learning to LISTEN to God…and this week we turn our attention to the time before we make that decision - the preparation season, where we learn to wait on God as He leads and guides us! Interesting that there is a preparation time in Scripture - usually represented by the number 30, a season of maturity and growing. Scripture tells us in Luke  So, what should you be doing in your season of preparation?Discipleship - Titus 2 instructs the younger men to seek godly wisdom from older men, in your season of preparation, seek wisdom from godly counselGod’s Word - deepen your knowledge of God through His Word - study, memorize, and meditate on God’s WordServe - preparation time isn’t just “sitting on the sidelines” but is a time to grow and mature - serving others is such a great way for us to grow in the grace of the Lord who came not to be served, but to serve - follow His example!Pray - as you wait, you can get frustrated and anxious - share those feelings with the Lord and as you communicate with Him…He will share with you as well. T4M guys - just a reminder that Training4Manhood is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) ministry and you can make donations either via Zelle ([email protected]) or by visiting the Training4Manhood website.
