The Light Sees the Face Beneath
The mask is heavy this morning, isn't it? You are replaying every awkward word, every stumble, convinced that everyone saw the crack in your performance.
But the light does not see a mask; it sees the face beneath it. There is a name written on a white stone that no one else knows — not your colleagues, not your critics, only you and the Father.
That name is not defined by your stumbles. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
Your shame cannot extinguish what was placed inside you before you spoke a single word. You are not the awkward moment you are remembering.
You are the light that holds it.
