“If the dove had come to the ark with an olive leaf in its beak at noon, then it would have been much easier for Noah. He would not have had to wait so long. But one learns more by waiting than by immediately receiving an answer. Waiting casts our cares on the Lord. God’s time is always the best time. The Lord never comes too early. And God’s wonders become greater when expectant sinners have been tried in their expectations."

"God sent the dove at dusk. That was probably when Noah was beginning to lose hope. It would, however, be a most blessed evening for Noah, for that olive leaf was given when, humanly speaking, it could no longer be expected. The olive leaf was a miracle beyond Noah’s greatest hope. Noah was on the verge of closing he window; when the dove came. For the Lord never comes too early; neither does He come too late. God did not let the night fall before He answered Noah’s plea."
