Beyond the Open Door

Today is Novemeber 14, 2008
and another door has closed . . .

It is my last day on yet another job through my years of employment. This job was eliminated through no fault of mine. It was a company buyout. Two jobs were eliminated - mine and that of another special lady named Linda. We both have a strong faith in our Lord Jesus Christ to provide and lead us. However, we are human.

Today is a day of sadness with a sense of loss. Sometimes, we just have no clue what to do
or what is coming next.

Like so many others the tendency is to be negative, depressed, rejected, angry and a myriad of other emotions all at one time.

But, we must remember that God is totally aware. He has something for us. We must be ready and waiting. Looking for those possibilities that He wants us to see. We must look upward and stay focused on Him.

We must look for God's open door . . . as it will come.

Beyond the Open Door

Beyond the Open Door

In the things familiar we find security
Resisting all the changes that days and years can bring,
When God decides to lead you through an open door
Inviting you to walk in realms you've never walked before.

Chorus:
Beyond the open door is a new and fresh anointing,
Hear the Spirit calling you to go.
Walk on through the door for the Lord will go before you
Into a greater power you've never known before.
Hear the spirit calling to wake the living dead,
To reach the huddled masses who cry out for living bread.
Arise oh mighty army, take up thy shield and sword
For the Father lifts His golden lamp beside the open door.
Chorus:
Beyond the open door is a new and fresh anointing,
Hear the Spirit calling you to go.
Walk on through the door for the Lord will go before you
Into a greater power you've never known Before.
Beyond the open door is a new and fresh anointing,
Hear the Spirit calling you to go.
Walk on through the door for the Lord will go before you
Into a greater power you've never known Before.
Where He leads me, I will follow
Where He leads me, I will follow
And where He leads me, I will follow
Into a greater power we've never known before,
Beyond the open door.
