Active Waiting

Don’t assume that waiting is a passive stance where you do nothing. Waiting, on the contrary, is an active stance and important spiritual work. We aren’t merely stalled out in a holding pattern until something happens. We are waiting on God. And as we wait on God to act on our behalf (though we can’t predict how he will act or what he will do), it generates greater dependence on God within us: an expectant posture and alertness to God’s activity. In fact, Isaiah described our posture of waiting as a conduit through which God begins to move.

For since the world began, no ear has heard and no eye has seen a God like you, who works for those who wait for him! (Isaiah 64:4)
