You Are Not Your Worst Second
The night is gathering, and with it comes the replay of every clumsy word you spoke today. You are convinced that one awkward moment has shattered how they see you, freezing your mistake in their minds forever.
But the light sees differently than your fear does. When the woman caught in shame stood trembling before him, he did not leave her defined by her failure; he looked up and said, "Neither do I condemn you." The accusation of your own heart is loud, but it is not the final verdict.
The light does not hold your stumbles against you; it holds you through them. You are not your worst second.
