"God gave you a mind. God gave you reason. God gave you a unique sensitivity; its built into your spiritual system, and each persons system is tuned differently. God want to reveal his will to you and to teach you while you are waiting. So while you are waiting, don't start searching for spooky stuff. We walk by faith, not by sight (2 cor 5:7). Get into his word. Get on your knees. Accept counsel from those who are maturing and balanced believers, solidly biblical in their theology and in their own life. And wait. Wait! Don't try to read the stars, and while you're at it, stay away from people who tell you they can. The answers are not on your palms or in some astrology column or in the flash of a crystal. However, there are tangible things to connect with. Passages of scripture that bring comfort and insight. Messages that enlighten and enliven. Certain people you respect. Tap into those, wait, and listen with a sensitive ear. Like Esther, don't rush into big decisions. And may I be painfully direct? Don't talk so much! Believers who are maturing not only respect God's silence, they model it as well." Charles Swindoll

What exactly is wating?
If you refer to the bible and the story of how the wisemen found Jesus, how exactly did they get there?
They followed a star.
The bigger question is where did that story start to begin with?
It's ok, you don't have to debate me over it. I can't relate to those that don't know the underlying theme...
wating is what happens when you forget to spell check.
