The blessedness of waiting (Dietrich Bonhoeffer)


  The blessedness of waiting is lost on those who cannot wait, and the fulfillment of promise is never theirs.  They want quick answers to the deepest questions of life and miss the value of those times of anxious waiting, seeking with patient uncertainties until the answers come.  They lose the moment when the answers are revealed in dazzling clarity.
