You Do Not Have to Earn Peace
The day ends, and the silence of the room feels heavy enough to crush you. You find yourself rehearsing an apology you never meant to give, just to make the quiet stop.
You are ready to say you are sorry for things you did not do, simply to buy a moment of peace. But the light does not need your false confession to be near you.
It is already sitting in the dim room, waiting for you to put the script down. The Father runs to meet you before you even finish the speech you prepared in your head.
You do not have to earn the silence with a lie. The peace is already here, and it requires nothing from you but your presence.
