'Desiring' in the Bible

Incline Your ear, O Lord, and answer me,For I am distressed and needy [I long for Your help].

And He was told, “Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, asking to see You.”

But on the next day, wanting to know the real reason why Paul was being accused by the Jews, he released him and ordered the chief priests and the whole Council (Sanhedrin, Jewish High Court) to assemble; and brought Paul down and presented him before them.

So now finish this, so that your eagerness in desiring it may be equaled by your completion of it, according to your ability.

so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord [displaying admirable character, moral courage, and personal integrity], to [fully] please Him in all things, bearing fruit in every good work and steadily growing in the knowledge of God [with deeper faith, clearer insight and fervent love for His precepts];

The Lord does not delay [as though He were unable to act] and is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is [extraordinarily] patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.
