Got the KEY?

Have you ever been locked out of your very own house? Imagine this, you are already at your doorstep, all the things you lugged from somewhere are on the floors waiting to hear the crystal clear clanging sound of metal. As you reached your hand into your bag, searching and fumbling, there were no other metal you felt apart from the round ones you use to buy things with. You cannot believe it, you squatted down right at your doorstep, took out all the things you think are hindering your search for the thing that will let you into your property, you look and look, there were NONE!

AAArrrrgggghhhhh~~~~~~~ thats how i felt right at my doorstep today! Was looking forward to putting down the heavy things that made my arms sore, to a nice, hot shower to put my aching muscles at ease, nice background music to accompany me when i do work. Alas, there were none that greeted me other than the great dissapointment and loss when i realised i had forgotten my KEYS.

As i was thinking where to head to, there was a sense of wandering and lossness that i felt in a long long time. Its been donkey donkey years since i last forgot my keys, so that sense of wandering has been long forgotten. I decided to head for my latest favourite hideaway, Starbucks at holland V with my lingo (jap), while waiting for a cab, God spoke at that moment when i felt so lousy....

He taught me a lesson about Keys. He said, daughter, do you realise the importance of keys? i stunned for a moment, He continued, its the same for the kingdom of heaven, its the same for your life. Without the key, there is no entry. I was dumbfounded as He continued, thinking as He speaks. He said, daughter, though you are mine, though you are created by Me, i cannot claim ownership over you until you give me the key to your heart. I went ' what?' He said, yes, I need the key to enter your heart, your life, to claim proprietorship over your life, to call you Mine.

Its the same for the kingdom of heaven. You may be at the doorstep of the heaven, all ready and eager to enter the home that you called yours or you claim to be yours, jus like my house. But without the key, the door will never be open. Even though its your house, without the keys, you are shut out from it all the same. You can do nothing about it apart from going to look for the keys. You claim its your house, but you are not given entry till you HAVE the keys.

You felt 'sian', wandering, lost, no idea where to go.... thats how you will feel and worse when you realise you dun have the keys to grant you entry into the kingdom of heaven.

I was like..... GOD.....nothing else came out. My heart was heavy from the revelation. This is for you and me, children of God. Are you sure you have the key to open the door of heaven, to grant you entry to your house? the house you claim God has prepared for you? Have you given the key that grants entry to your heart and your life to God? You knew Him for so long, but you say there's little or no transformation, no changes, no blessings, no nothing... i would like to ask you, as God has asked me: Have you given the key that opens your heart to God, so that He can claim total proprietorship to your life? Have you given Him the liberty to come in and stay in your life like you do in your own earthly house?

A lesson of the key, the little that unlock the great.
