"These keys don't work!", I grumbled as I tried and tried to get them to turn the lock in the door. I knew it then, but didn't want to admit it, these were not the right keys. They looked similar but they were not the ones that would open the door!
Don't you hate it when you misplace something? Usually if I retrace my steps I can find what I have lost. This time things were very different!
My experience was like the song by Francesca Battistelli
Lost my keys in the great unknown, And call me please 'Cuz I can't find my phone.
This is the stuff that drives me crazy,This is the stuff that's getting to me lately.In the middle of my little mess,I forget how big I'm blessed.This is the stuff that gets under my skin,But I gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing.It might not be what I would choose, But this is the stuff You use
Searching continued;
- In the pockets of my jackets, vests and sweatshirts.
- Under the bedroom dressers and even under the bed.
- In both cars, in the glove compartments, under the seats and in the cup holders.
- In the drawers of the kitchen, office and living room.
- In all of my purses.
- In my school classroom.
These lost keys remind me that Jesus is the only way to the father.
He is the key
He is the Only one who can open the door
Through Him we may walk through
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6
What have you been searching for?
Father, thank you for reminding me that you hold the keys to life, forgiveness, joy and eternity.
May I come in? Jann
Haha! I can relate to this! I've misplaced things and simply could not find them. I like the comparison. Your article reminds me of one I posted last month, Searching for life. Jesus is the only key, so we have to make sure we have it!
