Be like men who are waiting for their master when he returns from the wedding feast, so that they may immediately open the door to him when he comes and knocks. Luke 12:36

Today many of us hear a knocking on the door to our hearts and soul.  It is Jesus.  He may have been knocking a long time on the door of your heart, but you have ignored Him.

Our Creator and the One who loves us so, you may have been ignoring Him.  Sometimes we will open the door if there is something we need from Him.  But we do not welcome Him in to stay. He wants to move in and sit at the table and eat with you.  As you share a meal He has much to tell you.  He doesn’t want just one meal with you, but He wants to share your home with Him.  

You came to this place in your life because He has loved you before you were born.  He has so much to tell you.  He wants to share the moments of each day with you.  He will be the closest friend you ever had.  He will not bail out on you when things get hard to bear.  He will comfort you and hold you in His arms until the trouble passes.  

Open the door wide and give Him access to every room in your house.  As you do you will begin to love Him with your whole heart, soul, and might. 

He says, “I stand at the door and knock:  IF any man hears my voice, and opens the door,  

I will come in to him, and will eat with him, and he with me.”  Revelation 3:20

This verse was written to the seven Churches. Maybe you made a decision long ago to accept His grace for your sins.  But you are lukewarm in your relationship with Him now. 

What joy and love await those who open the door wide to Him.  You will fall in love with Him.  He delights to be with you 24/7.
