Revelation 3: 20
Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.
This is the message to the church in Laodicea. God doesn't like their lukewarm attitude. They are relying on the riches they have acquired. God wants them to come to Him for the real riches. They should be ashamed and repent. Then they will see the truth. He invites the righteous to join Him on His throne.
I recall a picture I saw as a child. Jesus is standing with his hand raised to knock on a heavy wooden door. It must have been a Catholic picture, because his heart was visible. I would love to have Jesus as a guest to a shared meal. In my mental picture, he looks so humble and welcoming. I want to relax with him and tell him all my concerns.
Prayer:Jesus, I am listening for your knock. Please come in and sit down with me. I'm holding that door open for you. I can't wait for the time we will spend together.Amen
