For the One Who Feels Like They’ve Waisted Too Much Time

You look back and wonder what could’ve been.

You replay the missed chances, the wrong turns, the years lost to fear, addiction, heartbreak, or just… surviving.

And now, you’re left thinking, It’s too late for me.

But listen—God isn’t bound by our timelines.

He’s not looking at your past the way you are.

While you see wasted years, He sees raw material for redemption.

Joel 2:25 says, “I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten.” That’s not just poetic—it’s a promise.

You’re not too late.

You’re not too far gone.

You’re not disqualified.

God’s specialty is breathing life into what feels like ashes.

What you thought was lost forever might just be the beginning of something greater than you imagined.

He’s not finished with you.

Not even close.
