Looking for an open door …

This is part of my life, I like to call it — searching.

So, Alexan­der Bell was quoted as say­ing, “When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regret­fully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.”  Thanks, Al.  I have this door, which shall remain name­less in this pub­lic forum, which has been closed.  At least, it seems closed, I could check the lock.  It’s now time for me to refo­cus on the big­ger pic­ture and start search­ing for new doors, prefer­ably open ones, and walk through one.

On the sub­ject of doors, should you be the one whose hand is on a door knob decid­ing if it should be open or closed, please look first and ensure no one is stand­ing in the door­way before clos­ing it.  Also, slam­ming the door is not nice.  If you ever have to close the door on some­one, no mat­ter how large or small, please close it gently.

And now, for my inspi­ra­tional quote to wrap this thing up — “But he giveth more grace.”  James 4:6  I’m so glad I know the one who is in control.

Oh, and just as a heads-up, next on the read­ing list is Terry Esau’s fol­lowup to “Sur­prise Me”, titled “Be the Sur­prise.”  Be on the look­out for some com­men­tary and real-life appli­ca­tions com­ing soon.  Pray for rain!
