The Light Sees Your Heart, Not Your Shame
The sun is up, but you are still staring at the screen, re-reading the silence you sent three days ago. You are convinced that your desperation leaked through the pixels, that the recipient can hear the shaking in your stillness.
But the light does not read between the lines like a critic; it sees the heart like a father. There was a woman once who wet feet with tears and wiped them with her hair, and the light said her great love showed, not her great shame.
The silence you fear is not a void; it is a door you have closed against yourself. God is greater than your heart, and He knows the truth you are too afraid to speak.
The dawn has arrived not to expose your panic, but to remind you that you are known completely and loved anyway. Stop analyzing the static; the connection was never broken.
