making dinner for one and eating it alone at the kitchen table

Feeding Your Soul in Quiet Solitude

The house is quiet now, the mask you wore all day is finally set aside, and you are sitting alone with a plate of food meant for one. The silence can feel so heavy that the food tastes like dust, and you whisper that loneliness is all there is.

But listen — the light is not in the crowd, it is right here in this quiet room with you. As the Father has loved that light, so it loves you in this solitude.

You did not have to perform for it, you do not have to perform for yourself right now. Just sit, let the meal be enough, and notice how the one who feeds the birds is feeding you too.

Even in the quiet, you are never truly alone.
