being told by your church that who you love is a sin

The Light Sees Your Love As Belonging

The day is ending, and the armor you wore to survive the judgment of others is finally heavy enough to drop. You were told that the very love flowing through your heart was a mistake, a stain, something to be hidden away before you could be worthy.

But listen — the light does not distinguish between the love you carry and the love that made you. There is a voice that says you are broken, and there is a truth that says you are known.

God is greater than the verdict spoken against you. The light sees the love in you not as a problem to be solved, but as the very thing that proves you belong.

You do not have to earn your place at the table tonight. The exhale is not a surrender to shame, but a return to the one who loved you first.
