The Love Already Running to Meet You

The house is quiet now, and the only thing loud enough to break the silence is the apology spinning in your head. You stare at the name on the screen, terrified that reaching out will only prove you are too broken to be held.

But listen — there was a father who saw his son coming home from a long way off, covered in the dust of his own mistakes. He did not wait for the speech to finish.

He ran. The light does not measure your worth by your ability to get the words right.

It runs toward you before you even stand up. The fear says you must earn the right to speak.

The truth says your voice is already enough to open the door. You are not defined by the silence you fear, but by the love that is already running to meet you.
