The Light Remembers What You Cannot See
The kitchen is bright, the coffee is hot, and your hands move on their own. You set two plates on the table before the silence crashes back in.
That moment of forgetting is not a failure of memory; it is the light remembering what your eyes cannot yet see. You are performing okayness for an empty chair, but the light sees the one who is missing and loves them anyway.
The gap between your smile and your ache is where the Father runs to meet you. You do not have to clear the second plate to be held.
The love that prepared the meal is already sitting at the table with you.
