When travelling on a train recently with my son into Sydney for the day I realised that as I was travelling with my back towards my destiny and my face/front to where we had come from that I had the advantage of time. And my son who was facing towards our destination had the disadvantage of time as it was limited to his perspective and view point.
When moving forward, our perspective in time is diminished. But experiences give us the advantage over time, enabling us to view from the advantage of experience and perspective what is really taking place. Time and therefore experience give us a broader and more mature outlook on our circumstances. In addition they enable us to know that in time everything works out for good, as Paul indicates in Romans.
