Psalm 25 is about active, engaged and trust-filled WAITING. It is not passive. It is a trusting in our God who quite frankly has earned it by His faithfulness. We trust Him because of His proven trustworthiness.
He calls us to friendship with Him. He asks for our regular familiarity and even fondness toward Him. This also is not without His previous demonstration of His friendship toward us.
The One we are called to WAIT FOR is our FRIEND. How great is that?
