NOTICE OF CONTINUED OPERATION: SPIRITUAL MAINTENANCE PROTOCOL

Issued without fanfare.

Effective upon receipt.

All persons are advised that endurance is still required.

Faith has not been discontinued, though it may feel

unresponsive to touch, prayer, or late-night bargaining.

This is not a malfunction.

This is a holding pattern.

Please refrain from interpreting silence

as refusal.

Silence may indicate instruction in progress,

or protection you are not cleared to witness.

Repeated checks for reassurance

will yield the same result:

wait.

Caretakers are reminded

that exhaustion does not void responsibility.

You may continue serving

even while unfilled.

However, unauthorized self-erasure

is strongly discouraged.

Rest is permitted.

Collapse is understandable.

Martyrdom is not required at this time.

All promises made to you

that were not kept

have been archived.

They may resurface as lessons,

boundary markers,

or permanent aversions.

Do not attempt to resurrect them.

False hope is considered hazardous material.

Emotional leakage may occur

during ordinary tasks:

folding laundry,

stirring soup,

driving familiar roads.

If memory intrudes,

acknowledge it briefly

and proceed.

You are not obligated to resolve the past

in order to survive the present.

Be advised:

Obedience without clarity

is currently classified as an act of trust.

Understanding may arrive later,

or not at all.

Either outcome is acceptable.

This notice remains active

until further revelation,

restoration,

or the quiet moment when you realize

you have been held

the entire time.

Thank you for continuing

without applause.
