having done something you cannot undo

having done something you cannot undo

There are moments that feel like a door slammed so hard it can never open again. You have done something you cannot undo, and the weight of it feels permanent in this gathering dark.

But listen: the light that waits for you is not waiting for you to fix what you broke. It is waiting to meet the broken thing itself.

There is a father who ran to meet his son while he was still far off, and there is a voice that says, when the darkness feels heaviest, that God is greater than the heart that condemns you. The act you committed did not erase the light inside you.

It only made the room darker so the lamp could be seen more clearly. You are not defined by what you did, but by the light that remains unbroken within you, even now.
