I've wanted to change the front door to my home for years. We put in a double door on our front porch, but have been discussing getting a single door with highlights. I need the 'light' in my foyer. But it's hard to make a change in something that isn't worn out or giving you problems.
There are different doors each of us have to go through in our lives - the door to our homes, to our rooms, our business. There's the door to the court house, the bank, and then there's the church door, into the vestibule. Have you ever given a thought to what DOOR is most important in your life?
We couldn't do without the 'front door' of our home; too many burglaries happening in our world today. We wouldn't be safe, not that the front door keeps a criminal out, if he truly wants to succeed in robbing your home.

There is a door though, I feel might be the one most of us find to be the most important door in our lives, the most significant 'front door' that will ever cross your path or it yours. That 'front door' is JESUS CHRIST.
John 10:9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
I call JESUS the 'front door', for you can't get to heaven through the 'back door'....there is only one way, and that is through HIM. You have to make a choice to choose the DOOR that GOD provided through his word, the one through which his sheep pass through on their journey to eternity. That DOOR is JESUS.
John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
If you haven't made a choice of doors, choose this day to enter through the 'front door'....the door to everlasting life.
Heavenly Father, thank you for providing the door through which we enter for everylasting life, the door we all must enter in order to fellowship with you. Help each that passeth through this website realize that without the 'front door' , they will be left behind when you return for those that have chosen to follow him and obey your word.
May I be an instrument in showing them the way to the DOOR. In Jesus name, I pray. AMEN.
