If God made you wait, He’s not ignoring you. He’s still writing the part you can’t read yet.

Silence gets read as absence because we have nothing else to read. When no answer arrives, the mind supplies the worst available explanation, usually that you have been overlooked, which is a guess dressed up as a conclusion. Delay and refusal feel identical from inside and are not the same thing. Whether or not you share that belief, the part you cannot see yet is still being written somewhere.

Keep doing the next ordinary thing while you wait. Note what this stretch is quietly building in you, even if you cannot name its use yet.
