Grace Is Big Enough For The Whole Mess
The day ends and the armor comes off, leaving you alone with the weight of your own needs. You feel too heavy to carry, too broken to be held, so you stay silent.
But the light does not see your hunger as a burden. It sees it as the only thing required.
'Do not weep,' the voice says in the quiet. 'His grace will be entirely with you and will protect you.' Entirely.
Not partially. Not just the easy parts.
The grace is big enough for the whole mess. You were made into a human being, and being human includes needing things.
The light is not afraid of your hunger. It is the place where your hunger finally rests.
