The Open Door



When we pray, the door is always open. We are invited to enter and just be at home with the Lord. Sometimes this seems too good to be true. We want to believe it; we say we do, but we often wait at the threshold, timid and even fearful. We only need to look up and see that the door is open for us and the one who loves us is inside. He hears our prayer and opens the door even before we knock. The door will lead us into His Heart. Have confidence and courage and go forward. I think I often hesitate, feel unworthy, and yet I know from experience that I need just to go through the door of prayer and I can enter His Heart.

something has been troubling me for the past two days and when i read your blog i did just as you said, and Jesus gave me not just the answer, but His loving heart, which is so much more. Bless you

Indeed! (At one point, I was afraid even to walk in the church door, but that is different now. I walk in all the open doors with thanksgiving.)

Dear Mary,
Thank you for sharing this. I feel that Jesus is always waiting with His Heart opened for us and burning with love for us. Your words are an encouragement to me to keep writing. Love and prayer, Helen
