The Saturday Stillness: How to Find Peace When Your “Wish” is in the Waiting is something we don’t talk about enough. Between the weight of Good Friday and the shouting joy of Easter Sunday, there is a quiet, often overlooked space. It is a day of waiting, wondering, and resting. For many of us in this sisterhood, life feels like a “Saturday” right now. We are standing between the challenge we’ve faced and the breakthrough we’re seeking.
Honoring the In-Between
We live in a world that demands instant results. We want the flowers to bloom the second we plant the seeds. But nature—and our own lives—rarely works that way. Saturday reminds us that the “in-between” isn’t wasted time. It is actually a time of preparation. Just as the earth is working beneath the surface in early April, your spirit gathers strength. It prepares for what comes next. If you find yourself struggling to stay positive today, take a moment to reflect. You can take a look at our Good Morning Sunshine downloads for a quick shift in perspective.
Creating a Sanctuary for Your Soul
This weekend, I want to encourage you to embrace the pause. We often rush to the celebration, but there is a unique kind of strength found in the quiet. It’s okay if you don’t have all the answers yet. It’s okay if your “wish” still feels like it’s a long way off. Try creating a small “quiet corner” in your home today. Even a simple chair by a window can become a sanctuary for your thoughts and prayers. This is where we learn to listen to that still, small voice.
The Power of Shared Hope
Trust that even in the stillness, there is a beautiful plan unfolding just for you. You don’t have to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders while you wait. Part of the beauty of this sisterhood is that we can lean on one another. When your own hope feels a little thin, you can borrow some from a friend. We are here to remind each other that Sunday is indeed coming. There is power when women come together to say, “I believe in your wish, too.”
A Moment for Renewal, Giving, and Peace
Take a deep breath and look around. Can you find a small way to honor this season of renewal? Maybe it’s a five-minute prayer in a sunlit corner or a slow walk through the spring grass. As we look forward to the coming weeks, I’m also thinking of the special women who nurtured us. Mother’s Day is also coming up, so watch out for our next post celebrating all our Moms.
Let’s Connect in the Comments
I would love to hear from you today. What is one “wish” or prayer you are holding in your heart this Easter? Let’s fill the comments with our hopes and lift each other up. After all, that is what Make It Your Wish is all about. Whether you are feeling joyful or just a little bit tired, there is a place for you here. Besides, spring is the start of all things fresh.

Author’s Note: Tales of Faith
On a personal note, many of you know my heart for sharing these timeless truths with the next generation. If you missed my latest release, you can find my children’s book about David and Goliath on Amazon. I am currently tucked away in my own “quiet corner.” I am working on the next book in our Bible Stories series. Stay tuned for more updates very soon!
