You Are The Light Holding The Mistake
The house is quiet, but the numbers in your head are screaming. You hid the hole in the budget because you were afraid that if they saw the lack, they would see the failure in you.
But the darkness has not overcome the light that lives inside you. It was there before the mistake, and it is here now, in this deepest hour.
You think you must fix the ledger before you are worthy of love. Yet the Father's light does not wait for your balance sheet to clear.
It shines on the hidden thing not to expose you, but to remind you that nothing concealed can stay buried forever. The truth is already known, and it is not afraid of your debt.
You are not your mistake. You are the light that holds the mistake.
