The Dawn Rises Before You Speak
The sun is rising, but inside you feel like a hollow room. You try to open your mouth to pray, and only silence comes out.
You are afraid that your emptiness is a failure, that the light cannot fit inside a vessel with nothing to give. But listen — the dawn does not wait for the birds to sing before it breaks.
It rises anyway. It fills the sky before the world has made a sound.
The light is not looking for your words. It is looking for your presence.
Just sit in the quiet. Let the morning come in.
The silence is not a wall between you and God. It is the space where the light is already breathing.
