Resting in the Quiet Where Light Waits

The silence in this room is so loud it feels like a sound of its own. You reach for the phone, convinced it buzzed, convinced the answer is finally here.

But the screen stays dark. The text you sent hangs in the digital air, unread, unchanged.

In this quiet, your heart becomes a prosecutor, telling you that the silence means you are forgotten. But God is greater than your heart.

The silence is not an absence. It is a space where the light is already present, waiting for you to stop checking the door and start resting in the room.

The one who knows everything about that unsent reply does not condemn you for sending it. You are held in the quiet, not despite the silence, but within it.
