The Open Door...

Today we woke to a bedroom that had the lazy warmth of a summer morning...which was all wrong given that it is gray and gusty autumn right now. In time, we discovered the cause for the balmy upstairs: the front door downstairs was wide open, triggering the furnace to sprint instead of stroll into its winter routine. When has this ever happened? When have we left the door wide open all night! But get this, I happened across this text while looking for something else, like finding Narnia. It is for you, my love, the discoverer and by your own admission maybe the cause of the open door:

Rev. 3: 7-12:

And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;

Rev 3:8
I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

Rev 3:9
Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

Rev 3:10
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

Rev 3:11
Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

Rev 3:12
Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and [I will write upon him] my new name.
