Knock and the door will be opened, Seek and you will find

Poem by: Simon Icke

Looking for God in a hard world…

is not easy;

Does anyone care about the poor and needy?

Why are the rich so greedy?

Some people say there is no God,

But with the next breath they blame Him, isn’t that odd?

The humanist and atheists think the’re so mod.

Coronavirus, violence, wars and hate, famine and drought,

Now earthquakes and tsunamis; without warning;

The reality of man’s precarious state is now dawning.

The world is in such turmoil, it’s in such a mess,

It’s so easy to say why should we care about the rest?

But hasn’t man contributed to most of this mess?

Perhaps after God’s creation,

He just forgot to mention,

There would be lots of tension.

However, good will prevail over evil in the end,

And forgiveness a broken relationship will mend.

Wasn’t Jesus sent to be our Saviour and our friend?

Offering salvation for all who follow;

He said, ‘I am the way, the truth and the life’.

and I can save you from this world of strife…

So now that we know our fragility,

perhaps more people will think of eternity?

Ask and it will be given,

Knock and the door will be opened,

Seek and you will find.

Knock and the door will be opened to you. To the one who knocks, the door will be opened. Did you notice that Jesus Christ said to the one who knocks which clearly tells us that to knock on the door is a choice. God is not forcing us believers to knock on the door because that is not who he is. He doesn’t force anyone to do anything which is why he gave us free will.

Hello @Maya Jesus has come for the relationship. He does not force His way in, or arrive in order to condemn us; rather, Jesus knocks on the door of our heart in order to present a gift the gift of Himself so that through Him, we may become children of God.
“He came into the very world He created, but the world didn’t recognize Him. He came to his own people, and even they rejected Him. But to all who believed Him and accepted Him, He gave the right to become children of God.” John 1:10-12
