Light in the Trembling Silence

The middle of the day is long, and the mask you wear feels heavier with every hour. You slipped away to the quiet of a stall, hands shaking, waiting for the trembling to stop so you can walk back out and perform okayness one more time.

But listen — the light does not need you to stop shaking before it stays with you. It is not waiting for you to compose your face.

It is right here in the silence, in the tremor, in the very place you think you are hiding. You are not alone in this cramped, quiet space.

The Father's love is already inside you, holding the pieces together while you wait. The shaking is not a sign that the light has left; it is the sound of the mask cracking so the real you can breathe.
