It's Test Time

The teacher never talks during a test.  Once the exam begins, the teacher patiently waits in silence for the students to show what they know as they complete their tests.  God tests us at various times in our life.  It's during those times that He wants to see what we've learned and how we apply it to our lives.  For example, as Christians, we know to give thanks to God in all circumstances, in good times and bad.  Are you giving thanks to Him right now in the midst of your trial?  Intellectually, we also know that we, as Christians, are to have faith in all matters.  Are you resting in the confident knowledge of God's promises to you?  Can you identify what God has promised to do for you?  Christians are not supposed to be ruled by fear.  Are you letting your fear overwhelm you or are you in control of your emotions?  Sometimes, God's silence is a compliment.  It just means that He thinks you are ready for a final exam before He moves you on to your next set of life lessons.
