Called to be the rest, not the lamp

The world sleeps, but your mind is still trying to carry the weight of everyone else's day. You feel like a failure because you cannot lead right now, because you have nothing left to give.

— But the light does not demand that you perform while you are weary. Look at the man who washed his friends' feet; he knelt in the dirt and let them serve him.

He did not lead from above; he led from below, and then he let himself be held. You are not called to be the lamp in this hour; you are called to be the rest.

The kingdom belongs to the poor in spirit, to those who have nothing left to offer but their own broken honesty. — You are not ineffective when you stop trying to fix the darkness.

You are becoming the place where the light can finally rest.
