feeling like a burden to the people you love

You Are Not A Burden To The Light

You are awake because a heavy thought is walking the halls of your mind, whispering that your love is tired of you. That you are the weight dragging them down.

But listen closely: the light inside you does not weigh anyone down; it lifts them. There is a father who saw his son coming home from a long way off.

He ran. Before the apology, before the speech, before the explanation of the burden — he ran to meet him.

You are not a burden to the light; you are the reason the light runs. If your heart condemns you, know that the Father is greater than that heart.

The love that joins you to your own spirit is not a debt, but a feast. You are held, right now, in the dark.
