ne of my favorite pieces of art hangs in the Keble College chapel in Oxford, England. The painting, The Light of the World by English artist William Holman Hunt, shows Jesus holding a lantern in DAILY OHis hand and knocking on a door to a home. One of the intriguing aspects of the painting is that the door doesn’t have a handle. When questioned about the lack of a way to open the door, Hunt explained that he wanted to represent the imagery of Revelation 3:20, “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the PATH door, I will come in.” The apostle John’s words and the painting illustrate the kindness of Jesus. He gently knocks on the door of our souls with His offer of peace. Jesus stands and patiently waits for us to respond. He does not open the door Himself and force His way into our lives. He does not impose His will on ours. Instead, Light of the World He offers to all people the gift of salvation and light to guide us. BIBLE READ: REVELATION 3:14–22 To anyone who opens the door, He promises to enter. There are no other requirements or prereq- uisites. THOUGHT FOR TODAY: If you hear the voice of Jesus and His gentle knock on the door of your soul, be encouraged that He Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If patiently waits for you and will enter if you welcome Him in. anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I Lord, thank You for the gift of salvation and Your promise to enter when we open the door. Please will come in. help me to respond to this gift and open the door for You today. ~ Revelation 3:20 Open the door to Jesus; He is patiently waiting for you.
