The Deposition of Christ - Rogier Van der Weyden.God saw the night I almost gave up. He did not miss it. He saw the moment I sat on the floor, exhausted. The tears nobody else did. The preparations I made for a day I wouldn’t witness. Listened to the prayer I didn’t have the strength to speak. I thought the silence meant I was alone. But in that quiet moment, the universe was moving. The same God that parted seas and raised the dead was holding me together. I didn’t feel him, but he never left. I’m still here, not by accident, but because purpose held onto me when I couldn’t hold on to it. God’s not finished. That night wasn’t the end of my story. ## Publication Information - [JovianSol](https://paragraph.com/@joviansol/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://paragraph.com/@joviansol/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@joviansol): Subscribe to updates
