The Light Sees You Frozen
You sit perfectly still, holding your breath, convinced that one wrong move will shatter the illusion that you belong here. The mask feels heavy, a fragile shell you are terrified to crack.
But the light does not need your performance to see you—it sees you even when you are frozen in fear. There was a man born blind, not because of sin, but so that the works of God might be displayed in him.
Your stillness is not a hiding place; it is the very canvas where the light is already working. You do not have to prove your worth to stay in the room.
The light is not asking you to hold it together. It is asking you to let go.

John, Mark
