the physical nausea of rehearsing a simple boundary in the shower, convinced your voice will crack and betray you

The Light Hears Your Cracked Voice

The water is running loud enough to hide the tremor in your throat. You are rehearsing the words again, and your stomach turns because you know exactly how your voice will crack when you say them.

It feels like betrayal—that your own body will fail you at the moment you need it most. But the light does not require a steady tone to hear you.

It heard the cry from the cross when the breath was gone. It hears the silence between your gasps.

You do not need to be perfect to be heard. You only need to speak.

Drawing from

John 8:10-11, Mark 5:19
