Come Follow Me

April 8-14 (Individual Study)  Jacob 5-7 "The Lord Labors with Us

Ward Mission Message

He Wants In

"I stand at the door and knock.  If anyone
hears my voice and opens the door,
I will come in and eat with that person."
REVELATION 3:20 NIV

While we often use this verse as an evangelistic tool, in context it was directed to the Church.  The verb tense suggests that Christ has been standing at the door of our hearts for a long time and He continues to knock.  He is persistent.  Bottom line, He wants to be with us.  So let's just do the obvious thing.  Open the door and make Him a part of our day today.  (Sister Janice Garner)
