Silence Is Soil Where Light Grows
The house is quiet now, and the silence feels heavy enough to crush you. You are terrified that if you stop speaking, the world will decide there is nothing inside you but empty space.
That your stillness is a vacancy, not a depth. But the light does not mistake silence for emptiness.
It knows that the deepest roots grow in the dark, where no one can see them working. There is a truth that lives in us and will be with us forever, hidden beneath the noise you feel pressured to make.
You do not need to prove your worth by filling the room with sound. The Father sees the vastness of your interior world even when your lips are sealed.
Your silence is not a void waiting to be filled. It is the soil where the light is already growing.
