GOD's seeming slowness is actually a marvelous proof of his Great Patience and Loving Kindness, GOD is epitome of wisdom and Love and is NOT slow respecting his promise of a NEW HEAVEN and a NEW EARTH but rather he is patient with you. Why?, “because he does not desire any to be destroyed but desires all to attain to repentance.” Likewise, we should “consider the patience of our Lord as a Salvation.” (2 Pet. 3:9, 15) Regarding what?
Remember how Satan questioned GOD's Sovreignty and Mankind's motive for serving GOD when he tested JOB? Well that same principal stands for us today. "Be wise, my son, and make my heart rejoice, that I may make a reply to him that is taunting me".(Proverbs 27:11)
We have to give an answer to him that is taunting GOD.
Satan taunts GOD with Mankind's motive for serving him. GOD has LOVINGLY given us freewill rather than create us as robots, and furthermore expects us to show that we serve him out of righteous motives.
Furthermore, What has Mankind done with this freewill but lead mankind into his own destruction (i.e. wars,pollution, crime, etc.), Centuries have shown that mankind cannot direct his own step and that in actuality we need a HIGHER power to govern over us.
“I well know, O Jehovah, that to earthling man his way does not belong. It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step.” (Jer. 10:23)
Simply put in a nut shell, GOD patiently awaits till he decides enough is enough and will bring Armagedon in which he will destroy the wicked and cast Satan and his demons into the abyss for a thousand years, and a gread crowd from mankind no specific number will have an Earthly Hope, the righteous and the meek shall inherit the earth along with the resurrected ones (Psalms 37:11), while the 144,000 chosen ones reign with Jesus Christ in the Heavens over Earthly mankind (Rev.19:1-5). Soon God will do away with suffering. (Rev. 21:3,4)
See: "Why does God Allow us to Suffer?"

If you're looking for miracles, you may be disappointed. If you're looking for extravagant help, you'll fall quickly into disbelief. God allows misery, war, and pain, but does not cause it. He takes simple steps in each life to A) create us, B) keep us breathing, and C) cause us to realize that we need him. Sometimes cancer disappears, other times a death is just what another human needs to be so desperate that they cry out to the living God. Why? Because Jesus isn't all you need until he's all you have.
Hardships in life are also forms of discipline. Discipline for a human, a nation, the world. Yet God is miserable when we are miserable, but if he fixed every problem why would we need a God?

so you are going on the fact that there is a God? For one thing, how can you even know what God is doing? How do you know he is idle?

Creation is perpetually generated, like light coming from a lamp. God is constantly in the process of creating and maintaining His creation.
He also sends Prophets and Manifestations of Himself to the world in order to establish truth and justice. He gives us a choice of whether we will accept or reject these teachings. God wants us to become one world civilization, where the equality of men and women is fully established, prejudices are overcome, the extremes of wealth and poverty are abolished and justice is the ruling principle in human affairs. This will inevitably come about, gradually, through the Will of God.

He is giving everyone a chance.
2 Peter 3:9
"The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance."

He saves lives both the souls of men and the natural lives of men when he saves them form death physical and/or spiritual.
He gives gifts to men
He keeps men and women from dying and enables babies to be born healthy.
