    Sometimes we have to be persistent to get Jesus’ attention. Not because he’s deaf, uninterested or removed from us but because things and people prevent our coming.

    Jesus loves us so much that He pursues us, and pleads with us to enter the kingdom and seek salvation. He knocks on the door to our heart. Jesus may knock on our heart’s door, but we need to be knocking on heaven’s gates!

In Revelation 3:20, Jesus declared, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If ...read more
