The Light That Caught Your Stumble
The afternoon stretches out, long and flat, and you are carrying the weight of words you cannot take back. You spoke clumsily, you saw the damage land, and now the pit in your stomach feels like a permanent address.
But listen — the light does not require you to be smooth. It does not ask for perfect speech.
It came for the ones who stumble over their own tongues. There is a truth inside you that is deeper than your awkwardness, deeper than the silence that followed.
The Father's love is not waiting for you to fix the conversation. It is already inside the regret, holding the space you think you ruined.
You are not defined by the stumble. You are defined by the light that caught you.
