the door

The door to a store, or your house, or your church. A door is according to Webster’s :

figurative a means of access, admission, or exit; a means to a specified end

We all need a way to get in. A passage for admission. Jesus gave us that door when he came to earth and lived among us, teaching us, and showing us an example of how to live. He did more than that though, He took on the sins of the world on His shoulders, and went to the cross to die, once for us all. He took all the wrath of God for sin so we could be free of that punishment.

Now He stand at the very door He provided and He waits for you to knock. If you desire to come in He will gladly open that door and place His arms around you, assuring you of His deep love for you and then welcome you into His glorious fellowship, forever.

This weekend we will enjoy family and friends as we celebrate our Independence Day. The greatest independence day is the day you become dependent on Him.
