Dec 22 Jesus holds the Keys

 To say that yesterday was stressful is an understatement. My mom, her friend Dale and I left for Michigan at 9:00 am and flew to California. We have been planning this trip for months and were so excited to be able to share Christmas with my daughters and our family. Traveling with two older people can be challenging. For example,

Walking anywhere took much longer than I thought! I am so thankful for the moving sidewalks in Denver!

When they have to go the bathroom, look out, because nothing can stand in their way!

If they have dementia, the afternoons can be extremely confusing. Several times in the afternoon my mom asked, “where we are going?” This was so hard because we have been planning this trip for months. I wish I had a Key that could open her mind.

This morning I am confident that Jesus who is the Key, can open any door.

I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades. Revelation 1:18

“Then I will set the key of the house of David on his shoulder, When he opens no one will shut, When he shuts no one will open.  Isaiah 22:22

Prayer

Jesus, the holder of the keys, I put my Trust in you when all the doors seemed locked. I praise you for reminding me that you are in charge and I can trust in you.
