Steadfastness, that is holding on;
patience, that is holding back;
expectancy, that is holding the face up;
obedience, that is holding one's self in readiness to go or to do;
listening, that is holding quiet and still as to hear.

SD Gordon, on waiting, from Quiet Talks on Prayer,
quoted by Elizabeth Elliot in Passion and Purity.
To wait requires faith, with eyes not only looking towards the future,
but heavenwards, towards the face of God.
