Sit Still...

“...Sit still, my daughter,

until you know how the matter will turn out..."

(Ruth 3:18 NKJV)

Waiting is:

Steadfastness, that is holding on;

Patience, that is holding back;

Expectancy, that is holding the face up;

Obedience, that is holding oneself in readiness to go or do;

Listening, that is holding quiet and still so as to hear.

—S.D. Gordon, Quiet Talks on Prayer
