Letting God Into the Pain

“Open the door of the wound. He is gentle. Let that not stay just an idea — let it become the breath you take next.”

“Open Psalm 34:18 slowly tonight. Read it as if it were a letter sent across centuries to find you, on this very page, in this very ache.”

“St. Teresa of Ávila knew this ground by name. They are not far from you. Their prayer, on the other side of glory, is praying you forward.”

“You do not have to resolve letting god into the pain tonight. Staying here, in His company, choosing to be honest — that is already the beginning of healing.”
