What if the answer is "Not Yet"?

Question

Sometimes I ask the question,
"My Lord, is this your will?"
It's then I hear you answer me,
"My Precious Child... be still."
Sometimes I feel frustrated,
cause I think I know what's best.
It's then I hear you say to me,
"My Busy Child... just rest"
Sometimes I feel so lonely
and I think I'd like a mate.
Your still small voice gets oh so clear
and says, "My Child...please wait"
"I know the plans I have for you,
the wondrous things you'll see;
If you can just be patient, Child,
and put your trust in me.
I've plans to draw you closer.
I've plans to help you grow.
There's much I do you cannot see
and much you do not know.
But know this, Child...I LOVE YOU.

You are Precious unto Me.
Before I formed you in the womb,
I planned your destiny.
I've something very special
I hope for you to learn.
The gifts I wish to give to you
are gifts you cannot earn.
They come without a price tag,
but not without a cost;
at Calvary, I gave My Son,
so You would not be lost.
Rest Child, and do not weary
of doing what is good.
I promise I'll come back for you
just like I said I would.
Your name is written on my palm,
I never could forget;
Therefore, do not be discouraged when
my answer is..."Not Yet"

Answer 1

He will make His will known in His time, not ours. That has been the hardest thing that I have had to learn & re-learn.

Answer 2

Long, boring, and totally unbiblical. The clear biblical answer is that the followers of Jesus will be able to call upon god and god will grant their requests, not edit them or rank them or postpone them or act in any mysterious ways. See clear statements such as Matthew 18:19. If god does not answer you, either the bible lies or god does not exist.

Answer 3

If not yet, one should completely and sincerely follow the instructions of the Lord without misinterpreting the God's word to suit our demands of self interest.

For instance when God says, "Though shall not Kill", one should not whimsically misinterpret the word Kill means murder and it thus aplies to man and not animal.
