The Verdict You Fear Is Overturned
The mask feels heavy this morning, doesn't it? You are walking through the day convinced that one small slip will reveal the weakness you are hiding.
But the light does not need your performance to see you. It already knows what is behind the face you show the world.
There was a woman once who broke every rule, caught in the act, dragged into the center of the crowd to be exposed. When the accusers left, the light did not ask for her credentials or her perfection.
It simply said: neither do I condemn you. Go.
The verdict you fear has already been overturned. You are not a fraud waiting to be found out.
You are a child who is already known.
Drawing from
John 8:10-11, Gospel of Thomas 51
