The Light Does Not Keep Score
The day is done, and your hand freezes on the doorknob. A sudden panic rises — the fear that you forgot, that you were careless, that punishment is waiting in the dark.
But listen — the light does not keep a ledger of your slips. It is not watching to catch you unguarded.
You are exhausted from performing perfection all day long, but the Father's love is not a test you pass by remembering every lock. The light is already inside the room, waiting for you to simply come in.
It does not demand your vigilance; it offers its rest. You do not have to be perfect to be safe.
