Jesus, Please - Come In!
Revelation 3:20 (NLT) “Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends…”
Take an inventory of your life. What expectations did you have of Jesus during your past and/or present struggles? Did you expect Him to fix things quickly, and make them go away? He could have, sure. But in everything He does for you – His priority is to grow your faith and change you to live in the maturity of that faith so it can be your testimony about Him. People are certain to come along who will need to hear your testimony so they can have a reason for hope in their circumstances! Jesus wants you to invite Him to join you in your struggles. You forfeit your peace in Him when you do not answer His knock at the door of your heart. Listen for the knock of your Dearest Friend. When you hear it - don’t hesitate to say, “Jesus, please come in!”
