A Series of Sacred Belonging
Scripture for Today:
Behold, I stand at the door and knock…
— Revelation 3:20
Questions to Ponder:
Have you ever expected a guest to arrive, only for someone else to knock on your door instead?
Or doesn’t arrive at all?
How does that make you feel?
Reflection:
Sometimes we extend an invitation to a special guest.
One that we have been wanting to spend time with.
One that we haven’t seen in a while.
Or someone that we want to get to know better.
We look forward to that appointment.
We anticipate.
We lean into the preparations.
We might even get lost in the excitement.
Then, the doorbell rings.
And no one is there.
Our hearts sink.
We are disappointed.
But what if it were God who knocked?
Would you still feel disappointed?
Christ doesn’t barge in.
He knocks.
He waits.
In the hopes of being welcomed.
And sometimes, we’re too busy.
Too distracted.
Too unsure of what to say.
Sometimes the most important guest is the one we don’t see.
Because they arrive quietly.
Without fanfare.
Without demand.
Without expectations.
This season, may we listen for the knock.
May we open the door.
May we welcome the guest—the One we may not see.
One Who Leads Us to Sacred Belonging.
