Sit still, my daughter.
When we are waiting on God, which I think every Christian ought to be all the time, we do not have a time schedule in front of us. We don’t know when or whether God is going to answer a particular prayer or do a particular thing or get us out of a certain situation or change any of the conditions of our lives. And sometimes we think of our lives as being on hold.
I don’t think waiting on God is a merely passive thing. And certainly it doesn’t mean that our lives are on hold.
