The Silence Is Full of the One
The day ends, and the small victory sits heavy in your hand because the person who knew your shorthand is gone. You reach for the phone, then stop, caught in the quiet panic of having no one left to tell.
But the light does not need your explanation to understand your joy. It was there before the victory and remains now that the silence has returned.
You are not abandoned in this gathering dark; the very presence that spoke creation into being lives within you. The silence is not empty.
It is full of the One who knows your name without you speaking it. Your joy is not lost because it is held.
