While I've waited, I’ve noticed something I believe is
significant: God waits.
He's able to do things instantly. But He doesn't always. And
whatever we believe about His outside-of-timeness, I also believe that He is
here in time also, with us in our days.
Not only that, but Jesus walked this time-bound earth, and
didn't speed up the minutes of the long nights, or the months of his childhood
waiting to start his public ministry. He didn't even speed up the seconds of
labored dying.
So there is something sacred about waiting. In it, we
participate in something so important, and so precious, that God Himself does
it.
