A Gentle KnockSample

The door in Hunt’s painting has no outer knob, reminding us that Jesus never forces His way into our lives. Opening the door requires a choice—an act of faith and surrender. Today, consider what it means to invite Jesus into your heart. Are there vines of doubt, pride, or past hurts that need to be cleared away? When you open the door, Jesus brings His light, illuminating areas of your life with His love and truth. Reflect on one step you can take today to welcome Him more fully into your heart.
About this Plan

This three-day reading plan, inspired by William Holman Hunt’s 1850 painting "The Light of the World," invites you to reflect on Jesus standing at the door of your heart, waiting to be welcomed in. The painting depicts Jesus knocking on a vine-covered door with no outer knob, holding a lantern to bring light to those who open their heart to Him. Each day, explore the invitation to open your heart, receive His light, and deepen your relationship with Him. This plan is from Richard Anderson of Edmond, Oklahoma, and Legacy Book Publishing.
