Sometimes waiting can feel like or appear like we’re doing nothing, but in actuality, waiting is a highly intentional action. Have you ever seen someone running after a bus? Well, that person was not found waiting at the bus stop. When I’m waiting to pay for my groceries, I need to pay attention to what’s happening in front of me and take steps accordingly lest I want to lose my spot in line. Waiting takes attention and alertness. It includes both stillness and motion. To wait is to take the appropriate deliberate action at the appointed time. What would it look like to be found faithfully waiting on God?
