The Dawn Finds You Before You Speak
The sun is up, but your mind is still in that room, replaying the lie you told to keep yourself safe. You see the face of the one who believed you—the trust in their eyes that you felt, even as the words left your mouth.
That memory sits heavy in the new light, a shadow you cannot shake. But notice how the morning arrives anyway.
It does not wait for you to be honest before it breaks. The light shines on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, guiding feet into the path of peace.
You do not have to fix the past before you can stand in this hour. The light is already here, warming the very hands that tried to hide the truth.
You are not your worst moment; you are the one being found in the dawn.
