"Will I not let Him in?" were the words used by a woman, who had been awakened to her true condition before God, for in many ways He had knocked at the door of her heart.
For some time she had regularly attended the gospel preaching, and, though anxious about her soul, she continued unsaved. One night, however, while listening to an address from Rev. 3:2020Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. (Revelation 3:20), "Behold, I stand at the door and knock," she became still more deeply impressed. The words went home to her heart.
"Behold, I stand at the door, and knock," kept ringing in her ears during the night, and her weary eyelids sought in vain for sleep. She found no peace till the following night, when, still thinking over the text, she thought she saw Jesus standing at the door of her heart, knocking for admittance, and she said to herself, "Will I not let Him in?”
She did, and joy then entered her troubled soul, and she could say, "Lord Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine.”
The cloud of sorrow passed away, and, with a face beaming with heavenly joy, she rejoiced in the Savior's love to her. Her walk and testimony since that night have shown to those around her the reality of her faith.
Anxious reader, there is also a Savior for you. Is your heart ready for Him? Will you also say, "Will I not let Him in?”
"Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me." Rev. 3:2020Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. (Revelation 3:20).
