For Being Held In Love

Mom, I was thinking about the quiet moments at home when nothing big was happening, but everything still felt okay because your care was there. Not loud, not dramatic, just steady enough that I could feel safe without even naming it.

Now that I am older, I understand how much love was in that steadiness. You gave me a place to rest inside life, and today I am praying that same kind of peace surrounds you while your body begins its healing work.

I love you so much, Mom. We are with you in this slow, protected, prayerful season, and I hope you feel covered in love today.
