Is Your Door Open?

I love photo's of homes. I love photo's of the insides of homes. I love architecture. I loved this photo and I would love to some day live behind this gate. Not that I want to hide inside or keep people out. I just think it is pretty and I love the bicycle. I love decorating. I had to laugh the other day because my 85 year old mother doesn't get it . Her 80 or 90 something neighbor has a similar bike propped against a bush in her yard. My mother doesn't get it. It is actually painted a bright cheerful blue and quite charming but mother sees it as silly and ratty looking not vintage. We all see things differently don't we. What I see as cool others might see as silly.

I see this gate as cool. I also see as cool my new house. Which btw has polished concrete floors. I had a long chat (on line) with my daughter last night about the concrete floors. She is afraid the baby will get hurt. I had to remind her that she is paranoid. That she is 28 years old and I haven killed her yet! LOL.

We do all see things differently. I am wondering as I am thinking what the door to your home looks like. I don't have a huge wall and gate surrounding my house but I do have a really pretty front porch and there is enough space above the door for a sign which I hope to install soon. I just have to come up with the right verse.

Maybe . . . Come to me all you who are weary and burndened and I will give you rest . . . or Behold I stand at the door and knock if anyone hears my voice and opens the door I will come in and sup with him and he with me."
I never really wold have thought about the Revelation verse but I actually say it over the door at a resturant the other day. I was plesantly surprised and then I noticed on the menu one particular meal the proceeds go to missions in Mexico. I ordered that one and it was great!

Well these are the thinks I am thinking about. I am wondering what words would you put over your door? Share your ideas with me. The door is always open even if you see a closed gate. . .don't worry you have the key!
