The Gigantic Door!
"Then, behold, the veil of the temple
was torn in two from top to bottom;
and the earth quaked, and the rocks
were split."
Matthew 27: 51
The biggest doors in the world are at NASA Vehicle
Assembly Building in Florida. They are higher than
Niagara Falls because of the size of space vehicles
assembled there. It takes 45 minutes to completely
open and close them.
Those doors aren’t as impressive as the ancient doors
of the Jewish temple. One of them—the door between
the holy place and the most holy place was actually a
thick curtain, barring access to the glory of the God
of
Israel.
When Jesus died on the cross, that barrier split
open. His death allows us to enter unhindered
to the throne of grace to find grace and mercy
to help in time of need.
We don’t
need a rocket to blast us to heaven.
We simply go through the door opened by
Him who said, “I am the door” (John 10:7).
Take advantage of this massive, open door.
Bring your burdens to the Lord and entrust
them to Him. Bring your praises and rejoice
in Him.
"Jesus is the door that leads to
Himself;
that leads to knowing Him more and loving
Him better, to getting all the blessings of
eternal life, all that makes us holy and
happy in Him."
Hugh Macmillan
