Open Door

Open door

Beloved:
You have given me your heart, but only a very small part of it.
For in it are many rooms, with many locked doors.
These rooms contain hidden things,
Memories of a forgotten time, dusty and torn.
They remain within a larger room, whose door is also locked.
Fear is written over this door, and it is where most of your decisions are made.
Fear that must be dealt with, in order for you to allow Me access
Into the other rooms you hide in at times.
To walk in true freedom, which is what you really want
And what I really want for you, you must hand over the keys.
The keys are your mind, will, and emotions.
I know they are not easily handed over, you’ve given them to others
Who have only used them to hurt you.
This is why certain areas of your life have remained unchanged.
Every trial and test you have endured has been an opportunity to
Reveal My true character and deep love for you, and also for YOU to see
The many doors you have locked up and hidden within your heart, 
Unknowingly in some cases. 

The question for you is, have I proven My Love for you?
Are you ready to give Me access to the painful places within?
We can walk through each door together; we can face what we find together
Without shame, exposing each lie, conquering the forces that have held you down!
Let’s stir things up! Let’s cause some trouble for the hellish hoards abroad,
They have sought to sift you like wheat from your beginnings.
The time is now, it is not tomorrow, I am here, I am watching every move
Around you, poised and ready, I am watching OVER you! Wanting for you.
I beckon you come, with open arms, take a walk in the wild wood with Me for a while, see how easily giants tremble and fall in the presence of the King you serve.
I have given you the keys to the Kingdom, which is My heart, an open door for you
To walk through anytime you please. Consider beloved…. Father
