HE SMILED ON TV BUT WOKE UP AT 2AM | Dag Heward-Mills

He opens with Hebrews 12:14 - without holiness no one sees the Lord - then flips the usual guilt response: feeling sinful is not a reason to run from God, it's the reason to run back to Him. He points out that sharp-dressed, put-together people in church are often hiding real pain, and tells of a public figure who smiled on television while secretly waking at 2am every day to carry burdens nobody saw. Then he turns the room into Jerusalem on the day of the cross, walking the crowd through Peter's denials and Judas trying to hand back his money, asking one by one who else has betrayed the Lord. The point lands hard: nobody in the room is any different from Judas or Peter, so stop performing and come back to God.
