The Dawn Does Not Wait For Perfect Hands
The sun is rising, and your hands are still shaking from the long night. You hold the smallest thing in the world, and the terror whispers that your trembling might break what you are trying to soothe.
But look at the light coming through the window — it does not demand steady hands to enter the room. It simply arrives.
It fills the space without asking you to stop shaking first. The light that lives inside you is not afraid of your weakness.
It knows the difference between a tremor and a threat. You are not your fear.
You are the vessel carrying the one who needs you, and the same power that holds the stars is holding your arms right now. The dawn does not wait for you to be perfect before it breaks.
It breaks because it is morning. And so do you.

Gospel of Thomas 24, Matthew 6:18
