The Light Remembers Itself Through You

The house is quiet now, and the silence feels like it is swallowing the small victories you carved out today. You are afraid that when the sun rises, the clarity you found will be gone, replaced by the same old fog.

But the light does not operate on a schedule that requires you to maintain it. There is a promise that echoes through the ages: the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.

The progress you made was not your own doing; it was the light remembering itself through you. And what the light touches, it keeps.

You do not have to hold the door shut against the darkness tonight. The one who knocked is already inside, eating with you, staying with you, keeping the watch while you sleep.
