The uncertainty and not knowing how things will unfold can be really hard because we tend to struggle with loose ends and waiting for some kind of closure. Yet as you mention, God often puts us in those spaces so we grow to grow in patience and discernment and in trusting him. There is so much we can learn in these spaces of waiting that has the power to transform our heart and soul - as long as we are open to the learning.

He's also teaching me patience and love while he dishes out His mercy and grace and a lot of knowledge. I'm quite enjoying it ... now. You've written quite a gem here and I love your humor.
