What to Do in the Waiting
And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.
—1 Peter 5:10, ESV
One Saturday morning, I decided to go on a walk. I came to a stoplight, pressed the button, and waited for the signal. One minute passed. I hit the button again, thinking that surely pressing it multiple times would speed up the process. Another minute passed . . . and I was still waiting.
I then noticed a sign above the crosswalk button that read Steady, encouraging pedestrians to wait for the signal to illuminate. I had been standing about four minutes at this one stoplight—which felt like an eternity. And then, finally, a signal said Walk, and I continued on my way.
Later that day, I thought about the word steady and how it relates to a long, painful waiting season. Other words for steady are consistent, faithful, regular, and constant. It can be difficult to know what to do while you wait, when you’re not sure what’s next or why God is making you wait so long. But perhaps there is something we can do as we wait: We can stay steady. We can stay faithful. We can stay consistent, right where our feet are.

I can stay faithful in prayer and Scripture reading, even when I don’t see my circumstance changing. Half the battle of staying faithful in a waiting season is continuing to show up.
No matter how long you’ve been waiting, God will give you strength as you struggle to get through today. He will direct you as you feel directionless. He will steady you as you remain faithful to what He has given you to do. Eventually, God’s perfect plan will be revealed in your situation. And perhaps because of your wait, the answered prayers and the change of seasons will be all the sweeter when it finally happens. So, stay faithful today. Stay steady. Eventually, this season will give way to something new. And when it happens, you will be r…
