In a vision the man saw the face of a clock, and he could hear it ticking. He would turn away and look back at the time, which had barely advanced. And the Lord said “it may seem like time is almost standing still because of the anxiety to want to get moving, but it is not yet time to make significant progress; it is a time of transition and waiting. Some of My people are bored. Some feel aimless because this transitional time has not made a way for the next thing. Seek contentment because I will show you things internally that must be dealt with right now so that they are not carried into the future.” [by Faith Tabernacle of Kremmling]

James 5:7 Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain.

Time is a friend
so use it patiently
for all that you are
and ever hope to be.
