Foto Friday - Who's There?

They're used as portals

to allow us to pass through from one place to another 

and can be opened and closed 

some are locked and some are not 

and many are slammed 

they mark an entrance and and exit 

and some a beginning and an end 

sometimes we leave them open 

for the possibility of change 

and sometimes we shut them out of fear
some are used for privacy
and some are secret and can't be found
we have all tried at times to put our foot in one
and some that just seem to do nothing but revolve 

we can beat a path to one
and some we have left unanswered
but if we're lucky enough we may hold the key
that leads to the one of another's heart
  and although there are times we may feel we journey 

through them on our own
He is always with us, we are far from alone. 

Luke 11:9 So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you;
seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

 Doors are tricky things . . . sometimes I spend so much time trying to open
(okay, shake) doors not meant to open and perhaps because it's not yet time, that I miss
entirely the open ones before me. I try to remind myself that God is my doorkeeper, the one who
opens and closes them and that I won't know if a door is closed until I try to enter it.
Its taken me my lifetime to realize that many doors have to close in order for an open
door to become evident and that I need to practice leaving the door of my heart always open to God
so that I won't have to worry about hearing His knock.
I am blessed to know and thankful that because of God's grace he is always granting me open
doors of opportunity and I just pray for the faith to enter them and the wisdom to choose the right ones.

Have a wonderful weekend my friends,
and thank you for being here at my door!

Love, Kim
