Known in the Quiet Where You Hide

The house is quiet now, and the silence feels heavy enough to break you. You are lying there wondering if the people who say they love you actually see the war you are fighting inside.

It is a specific kind of loneliness—to be surrounded by voices that never ask about the wound. But there is a Father who sees what is done in secret.

He knows the hairs of your head and the exact weight of your sorrow. You do not have to perform your pain for Him to notice it.

The light does not need you to speak to know you are hurting. It is already holding the part of you that feels invisible.

Your hiddenness is not a barrier to being loved. It is the very place where you are known most deeply.
