The Miracle Is That You Are Still Here

You opened your eyes and the room was exactly as you left it. The miracle you begged for in the dark has not arrived.

The silence feels heavy, like a verdict. But listen — the light does not always answer with a sudden change of scenery.

Sometimes it answers by staying. Thomas said the kingdom is inside you, not somewhere you have to travel to find it.

You are looking for a sign outside, when the only thing that has shifted is your ability to see what was already there. The woman who was forgiven much loved much, not because her past was erased, but because she finally saw who was standing right in front of her.

The miracle is not that the mountain moved tonight. The miracle is that you are still here, and the light has not left your side.
