If Christ were at your door,
would you invite Him in ?
Or would you clear the house,
of everything with the nature of
sin?
Would you slam the door in an
angry rage? Or invite Him in to study with you, as you turn the Bible’s page ?
Would you kick Him out, or tell
Him to go? Or would you warmly welcome Him, as the Savior you know ?
Would you go outside to meet
Him, embarrassed of your place?
Would your countenance give you
away, with your reddened face?
Would you even answer the door,
after a hearty knock? Or would you hide inside, silent, with just a ticking of the
clock ?
If Jesus were at your door, I hope you’d answer the Lord. Eternity is forever, the loss of your soul,
you cannot afford.
