Season Four: The Wasted Years
Season Four: The Wasted Years
Nothing is Wasted in Me! Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ (the Messiah) is [always] the same, yesterday, today, [yes] and forever (to the ages). AMP
It appears to you that nothing has happened and you have been marking time, even believing that you have missed My will for your life and that you have been sidetracked, shunted up a disused length of rail line, going nowhere, achieving nothing, unable to see or hear anything that will give you an indication of where you are or where you’re headed.
This experience is very disconcerting, particularly for people who are active and goal orientated in their walk with Me. What you have not perceived is that steadily I have been moving you along a secret path; progress is slow and steady through unfamiliar territory. As you have tried to see reference points and get orientated comparing your present situation with past experiences, it seems you have gone backwards or even regressed in your walk with Me. Be not alarmed for this is your perspective and not reality.
There has been great and significant progress, particularly in your positioning for the tasks that lie ahead. You have been moving secretly in the hidden places and I have nurtured you and tended to you in these unfamiliar places, using you not so intensely but strategically during what for you is a slow time.
Suddenly you will soon see that I have brought you by a secret way and soon your sidetrack will join back onto the main line. You will be surprised to see how far along the track you are, not having lost or wasted any time, but as you gaze into My word you will see a new reflection and you will see that I have re-equipped you and retrained you giving you a whole new perspective and insight into the life of the spirit.
What you found difficult before you will now find easy and you will see that there is now a whole lot less baggage that you are carrying, being in type a train that has now uncoupled quite a few carriages that have reached their destinations. It is now full steam ahead with a new coat of paint, a new boiler, a larger coal carriage and carriages with less friction to pull.
You will marvel when you understand what I have done in the wasted years. FULL STEAM AHEAD!
