Get the appA Gentle KnockNäide
William Holman Hunt’s painting shows Jesus standing at a door, gently knocking. Google it. The door, covered with vines, has no outer knob, symbolizing that only you can open the door of your heart. Today, reflect on whether you hear Jesus knocking. Are there distractions, worries, or fears that keep you from noticing His presence? Jesus patiently waits, longing to enter and bring His peace and light into your life. Take a moment to quiet your heart and listen for His gentle knock. What might be preventing you from opening the door to Him today?
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.
