Closed Doors

The only thing worse than a closed door is a closed window. A door you might walk away from unscathed, never knowing the opportunity just missed behind it. But it is an interminable punishment to have a window closed and bolted from you- where all the things you missed are right before your very eyes- completely unreachable. This is, in truth, the worst of all rejections He can possibly give.

  1. What is worse than a closed window is the perception that it is closed....because sometimes, the person only shuts it temporarily so that they can make themselves prepared for your arrival. Then they can reopen it. But if you close off and accept that it is permanently closed, you will miss the blessing.
