the exhaustion of parenting alone

Love Runs Before You Speak

The house is quiet now, but your bones feel heavy from the noise that filled them all night. You made it through the darkness, even when you thought you would break before morning came.

There was a father who saw his son coming home from a long way off — he did not wait for the speech, he ran. That same love runs toward you the moment you open your eyes.

The light has not left you; it rose with the sun to meet you exactly where you are. You do not have to earn this new day.

The kingdom is already within you, waiting to be remembered.

Luke, Gospel of Thomas
