The Light Rises Without Asking
The sun is coming up, and with it comes the familiar heaviness of all the words you swallowed yesterday. You rehearsed the speeches in the dark, perfecting the arguments you knew you'd never speak, certain that no one would listen anyway.
But look at the light returning—it does not ask the earth if it is ready to be seen. It simply rises.
The Father's tender mercy sends this dawn to shine on those living in the shadow of death, guiding your feet into the path of peace. Your silence does not mean you are unheard.
The light that lives inside you was speaking long before you found the words, and it will keep speaking long after the sun sets.
