I will not tell you to be calm.
I will not tell you to be subtle or quiet.
No. This is not the time.
Instead, I invite you to; Rage On, dear one.
Touch the flames of indignation.
Let yourself be set ablaze.
The fire will burn away the grief.
The ashes will be the seeds of rebirth.
After all, the bright, golden Phoenix is only found in the dark, black ash of pain.
God will not be ashamed of your anger.
God can handle rage, and fear.
Grief is welcomed and yes, tears are accepted.
Your rage is sacred and true.
Rage on, dear one.
God and I, are here for you and will not leave you till you are through.
Amen.
