God does not pause his work in us.

We know that God's timing is perfect; let us be patient because He is working on our behalf.
For this reason the Jews persecuted Jesus and sought to kill Him because He was doing these things on the Sabbath.[a] 17 Jesus answered them, "My Father is still working, and I am working." 18 For this reason the Jews sought to kill Him all the more, because He not only broke the Sabbath,[b] but also claimed that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.
19 Jesus then answered and said to them, "Very truly I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does likewise." John 5:16-19
Throughout God's word, we find many times that God is working in people's lives. Sometimes God's work is very visible, even dramatic, as in the case of the miracle that happened before the people of Israel during the Exodus, when the waters of the Red Sea parted like two walls and the people crossed on dry land. There are also times when it seems that God is doing minimal or almost nothing for us. Let's remember the scene where Martha and Mary, desperate for their brother's critical health, sent a message to Jesus asking him to come. Their friend, however, was delayed longer than they expected.
The sisters then sent word to Jesus, saying, "Lord, behold, the one you love is sick." 4 When Jesus heard this, he said, "This sickness does not lead to death, but for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it." 5 Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. 6 When he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days longer in the same place where he was.
John 11:3-6
The Lord has left us the Holy Spirit to be our faster and, above all, to carry out God's work for us, so that we too, in the power of the Holy Spirit, may act in favor of what God wants to do through us. The Holy Spirit also gives us the ability to understand, to discern all things, especially when God is working in us and through us. In this way, we must also allow ourselves to understand and develop patience to recognize that God's timing is not our timing, that God does not always act only as we wish. If we want an example of this, let's look at the life of Abraham, when he already had a promise from God that he would have a large family. However, he had to wait several years with his wife, and when they were old, they were able to give birth to the first of the children who would mark a before and after in all of human history in terms of the number of their descendants.
For this child I prayed, and the Lord gave me what I asked for. 28 Therefore I dedicate him to the Lord; all the days of his life he will be the Lord's.
And there she worshipped the Lord.
A Song of Hannah 2 And Hannah prayed and said:
My heart rejoices in the Lord,
My horn is exalted in the Lord;
My mouth is enlarged over my enemies,
For I have rejoiced in your salvation.
1 Samuel 1:27-2:1
