Why should we wait for God to reply to our prayer? What is the benefit of waiting? Waiting increases our trust in God because the more we wait the more we have to trust Him. If God does grant our requests immediately then much trust cannot be expressed. But when waiting is involved a higher degree of trust is required. Patience is involved. Patience is important for the development of faith. Without patience faith cannot grow and will even remain in the infantile stage. For faith to grow, it must be tested. And the best kind of test is waiting.
The reason why we do this work is to let people know that there is a God and that we worship Him, and that He is good, and that He answers our prayers, and that we need Him, and that without Him we will not be complete, and that without God we will be nothing. And I hope that this work continues.
