Trusting the Light Within After Silence
There is a quiet settling now, the kind that follows a day when you had to hide the truth of who you are. It hurts to have the people who loved you most tell you that your voice was wrong, even when you knew it was the only honest thing you had.
But remember the words spoken to the one who walked alone: God is greater than your heart, and He knows everything. That silence inside you when they spoke—that was not the enemy; it was the part of you that kept the light safe.
You do not have to outrun their words tonight. The light that speaks through you does not need their permission to be true.
It is waiting for you to trust it again.
