Knock, Knock, Who’s There?

Knock, Knock, Who’s There?

Good Morning,

Revelation 3:20.  “Behold, I stand at the door and knock.  If any man hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to him and sup with him and he with me.”
Everyone is longing for a satisfying relationship that will meet the deepest emotional needs.  We were created with this burning desire deep inside and will never be complete until it is met. So often we try to fill this void by searching for the “right” person who will love us and make us feel good and whole.  We burn ourselves out running from one person to the next, always being disappointed that we can not find the perfect match for us.  Even if we have found “Mr. or Mrs. Right,” when we expect them to fulfill our every desire for deep relationship we will ultimately be disappointed and frustrated.
This is especially true for a believer in Jesus. Even a Christian can sometimes shut Jesus out of her heart. We allow all the other stuff of life to become so important to us that we forget about the most important Person of all. When we shut Him out, the natural result is that we feel empty and unfulfilled.
There is only one person who can fill this emptiness and He is standing at the door of our hearts knocking patiently, waiting for us to open the door to Him. He does not force Himself into our lives; it is a decision we have to make. But when we listen to and hear His voice and open the door, He promises to come in and heal all the broken places of our heart, filling us with the love that we have been searching for all this time.  His name is Jesus, and He is the One who created us. As our Creator, it only makes sense that He would understand us and complete us.
When our relationship with Jesus is right, all of our other relationships fall into place.  No longer will we unrealistically expect other humans to meet all our needs because they can’t.  There is only one Person who can do that.
Listen!  I hear a knock.  Please open the door and let Him in.

Love,

Mama
