The Door Your Vulnerability Opens
The house is quiet now, and the weight of your silence feels like the only thing holding the roof up. You are afraid that if you finally say the words, if you admit you are drowning, the few people left standing will collapse under the strain.
But listen — there is a Father who saw you while you were still a long way off, and he did not wait for you to be clean or strong before he ran to meet you. He ran.
Your vulnerability is not a burden to the light; it is the very door through which it enters. You were made to be held, not to hold everything up by yourself.
The night is long, but you do not have to carry it alone.
