Nope-style advice: don't be idle while waiting on God

Mike delivers his 'nope style advice' — the hosts had agreed that giving 'pope style advice' on the day of the Pope's death would feel crass. His point: people waiting on God for a health crisis, a wandering loved one, or a job tend to put their whole lives on hold, and that idleness becomes dangerous — by the time the answer comes, the waiting may have broken you. Ben sums it up as a bumper sticker: instead of waiting while God is working, be walking while God is working. Keep doing the faithful work in front of you while the answer tarries, because the macro Christian story is exactly this — a great promise not yet in fruition, walked toward in obedience.
