The Light Does Not Need Your Apology

The clock is ticking louder than your thoughts, measuring the distance to a morning you are not ready to face. You are rehearsing words in the dark, building a case against yourself before the sun even rises.

But the light that lives inside you does not need your apology to remain awake. It has already seen the room where you will stand, and it is not afraid of the silence between you.

Go into that room and close the door; the Father who sees what is done in secret knows the grief you carry better than you know the words you cannot speak. You do not have to fix the broken thing tonight.

The love that holds you is greater than the fear that keeps you from sleeping.
