A door


After Matthew 7:7-12
 

It looks ordinary,

this door, an entrance

to a house, a place

unvisited before. It does

not encourage or

discourage; it stands

there, offering protection

or domain to those

behind it and a barrier

to those in front of it.

It is a door made

to be opened, but it

does not open by itself.

To open, it requires

initiative, simple as

it is but still necessary

to open. All you must do

is knock.
