Restoration is slow, and that's okay.
God promised to restore the years the locust has eaten (Joel 2:25).
Notice the promise is about restoration, not elimination.
Often, healing comes in small, gentle ways, much like the first green shoots of spring pushing through the cold, hard ground.
Some days healing may look like getting out of bed, or eating something, or pleading a heartfelt prayer of "Help." That's not stuck; that's process.
Creation is preparing for a season of quiet, but underneath the soil, there is rest and replenishment taking place.
You are not falling behind. You are being lovingly tended to, step by step, pause by pause; the restoration is in process. Not stuck, restful.
