Evenings have a way of taking us inward, our thoughts, and feelings. As the day is over, we often become more aware of our pains and the quiet struggles within us; hidden shames and silent battles. Time seems moving slow. We long for a gentle hand to hold ours, for a comforting presence, for healing, and for renewed strength. Sometimes, the approaching night can increase our anxieties, our disappointments, loneliness, and pain. Perhaps, the stillness of the evening can help us to leave them into further depths.
Let us ask God to help us immerse our ailing body into a
river of grace. Healing is not just about medicine and rest; it is also about a
deep, inner peace, grace through pass over the moments of pain and suffering.
In moments of pain, let us trust in a love that holds us close. Let us find the
courage to forgive ourselves and the world, and to hold onto hope even when we
are still in the dark, daring to walk ahead. At times we may be attached to our
sickness or emotional pain. It is important that we permit ourselves to be
healed. It is okay to let go of our hurt and allow ourselves to be healed. Even
in our deepest loneliness and pain, there is a grace that doesn't demand a perfect
surrender and devotion, but a warm love that simply settles over us. This love
might gradually give us the freedom to permit to let go of our hurt and allow
ourselves to be healed. It is
the grace that helps us to endure our hurts and death, but to find them as holy
grounds in our pilgrim journey. Let us gather strength and courage to descend
to the depths of self-emptying moments. This is not a distant light of a dream,
but a comforting presence that walks with us into the night, making a home in
our hearts.
