A Letter to the Generation That Must Not Waste Their Becoming
There is a weight in time, a silent measurement beyond the ticking of clocks. It does not just record your minutes. It demands your growth. Time is not just passing by; it is calling you into relevance. Too many want to be seen before they are ready. Too many want recognition without refinement. But true relevance is not forced, it is earned in time.
You are not relevant because you are loud.
You are not relevant because you are talented.
You are relevant because you showed up when it was time.
Because you became the right person at the right moment.
Time Produces Relevance
The relevance of a seed is found in its fruit, but not immediately. There’s a process. A preparation. A silence. Relevance is what time produces in those who don’t waste it. And time will expose those who did nothing with what they were given.
A man who is 50 years old but carries no weight, no wisdom, no value, has broken his covenant with time. He ignored the signals. He mismanaged the seasons. He aged, but he didn’t grow.
There is a relevance expected of every stage of life:
At 20, you build foundations.
At 30, you begin to take form.
At 40, you are shaping others.
At 50, you should be a reference. If you miss this divine progression, you will look back with sorrow, not just for what you didn’t become, but for who needed you to be ready and found you empty.
Time Is Also Attached to Relevance
Just as time brings relevance, relevance is only relevant within its time.
You don’t bring rain in dry season. You don’t light a candle at sunrise. If your impact shows up late, it may no longer be needed. Your calling must be discerned in the time it was meant for.
This is why you cannot delay growth. You must not silence your preparation. You must not outsource your becoming. Because the world won’t wait for you to wake up, it will move on. And when the time you were meant to shine passes, relevance will no longer knock on your door.
A Final Word to You, Reader
Let this letter reach your soul: you were born for relevance, but it has a clock.
You are not just walking through life. You are walking through divine appointments. Prepare for them. Plan for them. Pray into them. Because time waits for no one, and relevance respects those who respected time.
Let your age match your weight.
Let your time reflect your fruit.
Let your becoming answer your calling.
Relevance is not a gift; it is the result of time well used.
Age without depth is failure.
Time produces relevance, if you let it mold you.
Relevance delayed is relevance denied.
The time to become is now, before your moment comes and finds you unprepared.
