Brokenness Is The Canvas For Light
The afternoon light is unforgiving. It shows the dust on the shelf and the cracks in the wall.
You are afraid that if you finally let someone help, they will see the full extent of the breakage and walk away. But there is a man who was born blind, and when the light found him, it did not ask why he was broken.
It simply said that the works of God might be displayed in him. Your brokenness is not a reason for abandonment.
It is the canvas. The light does not need you to be whole before it enters.
It needs you to be honest. Let them see.
Let them help. The ones who stay are not there because you are perfect.
They are there because the light is real.

John 9:1-7, Matthew 6:22-23
