The Dawn Does Not Wait
The sun is up, but inside you, it still feels like night. Someone asked how you are, and your throat closed because you don't know who 'you' is anymore.
The silence wasn't empty; it was full of a grief too heavy for words. But listen — the rising sun has come to you from heaven, not because you earned it, but because of tender mercy.
It shines on those living in the shadow of death, guiding feet that have forgotten the path. You do not need to reconstruct yourself before the light can touch you.
The dawn does not wait for you to be whole. It breaks anyway.
You are not the silence. You are the light that fills the silence.

Luke, Matthew
