It’s hard to wake up from life’s hollow daze. The word “holiday” came from the old English word, “haligdæg,” which means “holy day.” Every day is my favorite “haligdæg” because every day is a holy day, a gift from God, and Jesus is always knocking on the doors in my heart.
If you are a Christian, you are a temple of the Holy Spirit and Jesus is knocking on your closed doors so that He can turn the tables inside of you and purify His temple from deep within. Will you open the closed doors in your heart and let Him in and take full control?
Who is that knocking on your closed doors? It’s the risen Jesus Christ. Jesus, the Door-Knocker, is your hope for healing, inner peace, recovery, and sanity. See Revelation 3:20. (You can keep some of the doors of your heart closed to the living Jesus, but you can’t make Him stop knocking.)
Jesus is knocking on your closed doors. Open up to Him and live your life with all your doors always open to the risen Jesus. It takes courage and faith to open wide your closed doors to the living Jesus. The people who dare to continually do so are filled with the wonderful fruit of His Spirit. See Galatians 5;22-23.
Even when people
Try to padlock
Their heart
And to block
The sound
Of Christ’s knock,
It echos deeply
Within them
Like the tick-tock
Of a loud clock.
