staring at the phone screen after sending a text, terrified that needing reassurance makes you too heavy to love

You Are The Weight Love Was Made To Carry

The screen glows, waiting for a reply that feels like it will define your worth. You sent a text asking if you are too much, and now the silence feels like a verdict.

You imagine your need as a weight that will crush the love on the other end. But the light does not measure love by how little you ask for.

It measures it by how freely it gives. There is a story of a woman who knew she had been forgiven much, and because of that, she loved much.

Your need is not a barrier to being loved; it is the very place where love lands. The light is not looking for someone who carries everything alone.

It is looking for someone honest enough to say: I am heavy, and I need you. You are not too heavy to hold.

You are exactly the weight love was made to carry.

Luke 7:47, Gospel of Thomas 70
