doors

Opening Prayer: Lord Jesus, sometimes the doors you open before us are daunting and scary and challenging. We’re not quite sure if we have what it takes to walk through them.  We’re not quite sure what they will mean or what they will require, so we shrink back from accepting your invitation.  But life with you, Lord Jesus, is always and incredible adventure, so give us the courage and the grace and the strength to always take you up on your invitation to deeper life, greater growth, and more passionate love.

Scripture: Revelation 3:8

Journal: What door has God opened before you?  What is God inviting you to?  Will you go in?  What does that look like?

Reflection:

          doors

there are doors

that open in our lives

and if we have the courage

to step through them

we will be met by Jesus

on the other side

he will lead us deeper

into his great heart of love

and what looked like a crisis

becomes a conversion

an invitation into

intimacy and affection

beyond our wildest dreams

every crisis offers a conversion

if we are willing to embrace it

and meet Jesus in the midst of it

Pray

Closing Prayer: Help us, O Lord, to step through the door you have placed before us, whatever it may be and wherever it may lead.  Knowing that life with you is life in abundance.
