The Unsent Letter

The Unsent Letter

4 — “The Unsent Letter”

“Grace and peace to you. We are in Day 4 of Advent,

and welcome to Tiny Advent Parables with me Fr. Dominic —

a moment where ordinary stories

open our hearts to the meaning of this holy season.”

“Today’s parable begins with a quiet table…

and a letter that was never posted.”

“A widow had a ritual every December.

She wrote a letter to her late husband —

not to send it,

but to release whatever she carried that year.

This December, she sat down to write…

but the words refused to come.

Her grief felt heavier than ink.

So she placed her hands on the blank page

and simply sat in silence.

Minutes passed.

Then, in the stillness,

she felt something warm —

a presence beside her,

a quiet companionship she hadn’t felt in months.

She realized the letter didn’t need words.

Her heart needed stillness.

And in that silence,

God had entered the room.”

“Some seasons of life leave us speechless.

Grief does that.

Confusion does that.

Loneliness does that.

We force ourselves to ‘move on,’

‘be strong,’

‘write the next chapter.’

But Advent teaches us something gentler:

Healing often begins

not when we speak…

but when we sit with God in quiet honesty.

Your unsent letters,

your unfinished prayers,

your unspoken sorrows —

these are not failures.

They are sacred spaces where Christ desires to come close.

Advent is not about perfect wordsbut about welcoming God into the wordless places

of your heart.”

“So today, take a moment and ask yourself:

‘Where do I need God to simply sit with me?’

Don’t force the words.

Just offer Him the silence.

And whisper this prayer:

‘Lord, meet me in the places I cannot express.’

This is Tiny Advent Parables with me Fr. Dominic.

May God sit gently beside you today.”
