I asked for a steadier heart, not a different life

Dear Delyara, That prayer felt very honest this week. I still want some things in life to change. But deeper than that, I wanted steadiness. A softer center. More trust without needing every outcome clarified first. A way of living inside not-knowing that didn’t turn me so quickly into defense. That feels like a quieter faith than I used to imagine. And a stronger one.
