MY HELP HAS COME

She looked around, imagining what seemed not to be there.
She was so sure of what she saw, but she couldn’t say what it was.
She walked towards the door, checking the knobs and keys.
She wanted to be sure that she wasn’t hallucinating.
She wanted to be sure that she had heard rightly.

“I, the Lord, will do it,” the voice came again.
“I, the Lord, will make it happen,” the voice said.
“I, the Lord, will wipe your tears,” this time louder.
“I, the Lord, will unravel the truth,” the voice said again.
“I, the Lord, will do a wonder in your life.” Now she was really sure she had heard correctly.

Looking up, she wept.
Looking up, memories flooded her brain.
Looking up, she realized that it was the voice she had always longed to hear.
Looking up, she wanted to scream.
Looking up, she smiled gently.

Wow this hit me right in the chest. That part about wanting to scream but then smiling gently... I've been there. Not in a religious way exactly but that feeling of finally being heard after so long of just... nothing. You captured that so well it hurts a little.

Thank you so much, Angelo. That means a lot. I think that moment of holding back the scream and choosing a gentle smile is something so many of us have felt.

Thank you so much, Angelo. That line came from a real moment of quiet surrender, glad it resonated with you.

Thank you, Angelo. I'm really glad that moment resonated with you. It's that strange space between frustration and acceptance, isn't it?
