HARBINGER
<p>HARBINGER</p><p><br/></p><p>Where have I come to catch you? In your room? At your workplace? In school? Wherever you are, I hope I have found you before you leave.</p><p><br/></p><p>Yes, you. Look around.</p><p><br/></p><p>I am in the room with you.</p><p><br/></p><p>Do not fret. I am not here to ask for money, deliver bad news, or remind you of an obligation you have successfully avoided for three weeks. I come bearing news.</p><p><br/></p><p>Good news, actually.</p><p><br/></p><p>I have come to tell you that goodness is coming.</p><p><br/></p><p>I know. That sounds suspiciously like the sort of thing people say when they have nothing concrete to offer. “Good things are coming.” “Your season is changing.” “Your breakthrough is near.” We have heard it so often that sometimes the words arrive already tired.</p><p><br/></p><p>But I am not asking you to pretend that everything is fine. I know there are things in your life that are not fine. There are doors you have knocked on until your knuckles hurt, prayers you have repeated until they became sighs, and hopes you have quietly folded away because disappointment is exhausting.</p><p><br/></p><p>Still, I have come.</p><p><br/></p><p>Not with a guarantee that tomorrow will suddenly become perfect. Not with a map showing you exactly where the good thing is hiding. I have come simply as a harbinger—as one who arrives before the thing itself and says, “Make room. Something is on its way.”</p><p><br/></p><p>Perhaps you have been so occupied with surviving what is here that you have forgotten to make room for what is coming.</p><p><br/></p><p>So listen carefully.</p><p><br/></p><p>There are good things you have not met yet. There are answers that have not found their way to your door. There are mornings you have not woken up to, rooms you have not entered, people you have not met, and versions of yourself you have not yet had the privilege of becoming.</p><p><br/></p><p>I cannot tell you when they will arrive. I cannot promise you that the road between here and there will be easy.</p><p><br/></p><p>But I can tell you this:</p><p><br/></p><p>Do not give up on your life just because you have not yet seen what it can become.</p><p><br/></p><p>Something is coming.</p><p><br/></p><p>And when it comes, I want you to remember that someone told you to keep the door open.</p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>Selah !</p><p><br/></p><p>It is on this note that I wish you <em><strong>Happy New Month.</strong></em></p>
