catching your own reflection in a dark window and instantly looking away because you can't bear to see the face that was hated

The Secret Name Only God Knows

The house is quiet, and the glass turns black. You catch your own face in the window, and for a split second, you see the one the world rejected.

You look away. You cannot bear the sight of the one who was hated.

But the darkness outside has not overcome the light inside. It cannot.

There is a name written on a white stone that no one else knows. Not the name your pain gave you.

Not the name your enemies whispered. A secret name, known only to you and the Father.

The face you fear is not the final truth. The light that shines in the darkness is the only face that matters.

And it has never looked away from you.
