lying in bed replaying the exact tone of your voice when you said goodbye, convinced they heard the desperation you tried to hide

God Is Greater Than Your Condemning Heart

The room is quiet now, but your mind is loud with the echo of a voice you wish you could take back. You are replaying the exact tone, convinced they heard the desperation you tried so hard to hide.

But the darkness has not overcome the light that was speaking even through your fear. That light does not depend on your performance or your perfect composure.

It was there before the goodbye, and it remains now that the words are gone. God is greater than your heart when it condemns you for sounding human.

The voice you fear was just the surface; the depth of you is held by a love that knows every tremble and calls it nothing but truth. You do not need to fix the memory to be safe tonight.
