Revelation 3:20<br \/> My dear child, why is it so hard for you to accept My words of love? Or the reality of My love for you? Have I not proved over and over that I love you with a supernatural and unfailing love? Has My care ever been lacking? Yet you draw back, frightened, guilty, defensive\u2014even against Me. I will not force Myself beyond that inner citadel. I stand at the door and knock\u2014for My nature is to respect what I have created and given life to. When I said \u201cWe will come in and sup with him,\u201d I meant that a whole world of friendship awaits those who hear My voice and allow Me free entrance to the inmost recesses. It is Love that stands\u2014that pleads. Let Me take full charge. Don\u2019t let pride, fear, jealousy or any shame keep Me from Love\u2019s goal. My dear child, why do you think I died for you?<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July 24 Echoes of Eternity 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.
