The Light Meets You in Fatigue
The middle of the day is long, and your legs feel like they have forgotten how to carry you. You want to stop, but you are convinced you do not have the strength to take even one more step.
There was a father who saw his son coming home from a long way off. He ran.
Before the apology, before the speech — he ran. The light does not wait for you to become strong enough to finish the journey.
It meets you in the fatigue you are feeling right now. You do not have to manufacture a power you do not possess.
The strength you need is not yours to create; it is yours to receive. Rest is not a reward for finishing; it is the place where the light finds you.
