I think this is interesting because about a week ago, my journal asked me "what confuses you the most?" And It was such a hard question to answer and I eventually wrote time. Time lately has been one of the most confusing concepts.

Transitioning into adulthood fr has been jarring and time has been one of the hardest things to conceptualize and I pray that God teaches me how to navigate that.

Nonetheless, thank you for sharing 🤍.

Awwwww, thank you for sharing this, Amarachi. I completely understand how confusing time can be, especially in a season of transition. Adulthood sure has a way of making us feel like time is slipping through our fingers but I always pray for the grace and wisdom, and do my part, to live fully in each moment. I pray that for you, too. And let me just add, Amarachi- you are doing great in this transition. I am grateful that you connected with this, and I appreciate you sharing your heart. 🤍

This is so beautifully written. I come back to it every once in a while. The concept of time passing is a bittersweet feeling. I often find myself reminiscing about the good times; this is not necessarily a bad thing, but it sometimes stands in the way of me fully enjoying the present. Thank you for the reminder to be more present.

Thank you Tife for this beautiful piece…every line and sentence is just what is written here, oh how I wish I could draw back the hands of time but in rare cases the will of God supersedes and allows the things that won’t give glory to His name pass us by !!!!

Thank you, Bisola! I can relate to the longing to turn back the hands of time. You are very right - God’s will and timing are perfect, even when we don’t fully understand. It is comforting to know that He allows what’s best for us, even when it is hard to see in the moment. 🤍

Tife, thank you for this amazing article on time.

Just finished it now and I’m taking time to reflect on things that matter and needs to be prioritized.

God continue to bless your heart.
