The Light Was There All Along
It is three days later, and the house is quiet enough to hear the echo of a single sentence. A neutral comment, spoken without weight, has become in your mind the moment the door closed.
You are replaying the tone, searching for the crack where the love slipped out. But the heart condemns you with a story that isn't true.
God is greater than your heart, and He knows everything—including the parts of that conversation you are too afraid to remember clearly. What you are calling evidence is only the darkness trying to convince you that you are already alone.
The light was there in the room, even when you felt it fade. You are not defined by the moment you think they left, but by the One who sees you still sitting here, waiting in the dark.
