Held When You Wish to Let Go
The house is quiet now, and the silence feels heavy enough to hold you down. You are still here, awake, carrying a secret hope that morning never comes—that the night would simply be the end of the weight.
But the darkness has not overcome the light, and it cannot extinguish what lives inside you. Even in this deepest hour, the true light is already shining within your chest, untouched by your despair.
You were sent into this world as a drop from that light, not to be trapped in it, but to illuminate it. The Father is not willing that you should perish, not tonight, not ever.
You are being held in a grip that is stronger than your desire to let go. The sun will rise, whether you feel ready or not.
