Grace dawned, the struggle ended, the inner tugs fell quiet, and fear let go.
The Arc
Some days feel like running on a treadmill you can't switch off. Then grace opens a door. You start singing praise, and the running stops. You rest. Now you have found a life that lasts. The Maker comes into your mind, and you find shelter with the saints. Wanting more, quick anger, grabbing, and clinging all go quiet. The One is right here, close, watching over you. Your trust feels cool and complete, like water on a hot day. Someone who stumbled gets lifted in a moment. Every fear slips away. Day and night, your heart stays tuned to the One. At the centre, the Rahao: a life that lasts, with the Maker in mind and shelter with the saints.
