I know you feel like you are losing time. You are grieving over the feeling of loss. But I need you to remember that my economy of time does not work like yours. What you give up to me is not gone to waste. I can do abundantly more with what you put into my hands than you can do holding on to it yourself. Work actively and persistently on relaxing your heart in my hands. Try not focus on what you feel you are losing, remember that it is mine and what is mine is not lost. I will bring you through this season-- and it is only a season. You've known cloudy, cold Winters that seemed endless, but there was always Spring. I am at work right now. I am not ignoring you. I am present in this. There will be so much blessing from this season of patience and faithfulness. Despite all of your feelings, the only thing you are missing out on right now is the comfort of my presence. Be in it and remember that all time is in my hands.
