I guess because of the little song we sang in Sunday School, this verse has always been a favorite. I remember the heart stopping conviction I had several years ago when I really pondered that he is saying that to A CHURCH.
Oh my goodness, I can't believe we did the same verse, and both used a door as the photo - wow! Great minds, huh? :-) I was actually looking for a door similar to the one you used, but couldn't find one in time. I love yours! Happy Sunday! :-)
Every week when the same verse is used by multiple people, I always wonder who that message was intended to reach - and if they got it.
This is another awesome take on that verse! I love that your door is old and peeling, like so many lives that are a mess - that there's no doorknob, to show that Jesus has to be willingly let in by us, He can't just barge His way through - and the door seemingly leads nowhere, for even the most lost among us still has hope. Even the beam leaning against the door is symbolic of the cross!

ReplyDeleteElizabeth, what an excellent job with this verse! I am really enjoying Scripture & A Snapshot also.

ReplyDeleteI love old door pictures and this one is great. Such a wonderful verse.
ReplyDeleteLove the rusty, old, decrepit door. You and Karli must be on the same wave length.
