Open Doors / Closed Doors

Revelation 3: 7 - "What (the Lord) opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no can open."

All through life's journey doors open and doors close. Have you ever wondered why?

When a door would shut - an opportunity was lost, my mother would tell me God will open another door for you.

As I reflect over my life I have come to realize that the open and closed doors were God's way of keeping me on the right path. After all God has the bigger picture, He is in control.

It is human nature to have negative feelings when doors close. We think that opened door was just what we needed to make our lives better.

Remember Proverbs 3:5 - "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."

You can have peace and assurance, knowing that your future is secure in God's hands, even when you cannot see an open door.
