This is sooo helpful. I've often had trouble with our productivity influenced understanding of time. So often we feel we've wasted our time! But I've known it's not about efficiency! So the language of seeing time as the context in which we become more like Christ is so helpful. Possibilities in which we can be drawn to Christ and transformed. Thank you for your insights.
It seems rather timely that I stumble upon this after spending the last two days mumbling over only the wasted time and opportunity as I once more find myself confined to a bed.... albeit this time on the other side of the world...
Oh friend! I feel for you. I often write these out of my own "mumblings," and this one definitely so. I just hate the feeling that I'm wasting time. Will pray that something beautiful comes out of this time even though it isn't what you were hoping or planning for. xx
