A Gentle Knock

DAY 3 OF 3

In Hunt’s painting, Jesus holds a lantern, symbolizing the light He brings to those who welcome Him. Once you open the door, His presence transforms your life, guiding you with His truth and love. Today, reflect on how inviting Jesus into your heart changes the way you live. How can you share His light with others through your words, actions, or love? Spend time thanking Jesus for His patience and grace, and ask Him to help you walk in His light every day.

About this Plan

A Gentle Knock

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.
