time to come
Days not yet
Time to come means the future—the period that hasn't happened yet.
The phrase is somewhat formal or literary: In time to come, historians will judge us by our actions.
It often carries a sense of consequence or legacy, suggesting events that will unfold after the present moment has passed.
