Love rang my door bell

When love rocked up at my doorstep.It caught me unaware. It rang the bell but I was reluctant to open it. I looked out the window from my bedroom to see who it was. And why he was there.

When the bell rang it found me at a time when I was reading Psalm 27:14 and waiting for an answer. A tall good looking gentleman stood outside with nothing more than the black Hugo boss suit on his body,a bible in his hand and the glasses on his face. He patiently waited at the door while I looked for my key. What he came to do I don't know.But I'd like to find out.The duration of his visit is unknown. When I delayed in opening the door the young man didn't walk away or look down with dissapointment instead, he raised his head with confidence and looked up into the heavens as he waited to enter.I saw him speak to his maker.

His patience astonished me,his faith left me breathless as I scrambled and searched the house,turned it upside down,inside out in search of my key I looked outside again to see if he was there. I could no longer see him.
Dissaponted I looked again.There he was, he decided to sit down and wait for me.While he waited he opened his bible to Phillipians 1: 2-10 I heard him read it out loud...

He perhaps knew that I didn't know why he was there.So he read it to me. I almost gave up on myself trying to find the key,but still he waited for me.
A few minutes later, I am walking towards the door.Sad and in tears that I couldn't find my key. I stop in front of the door and I'm about to collapse out of exhaustion and misery. I knelt down on my knees and prayed to God to show me where my key was.

His back against the door from outside and mine against the door from the inside. I knew that the love I'd been waiting for is only one step away.Not just any love but Agape love.

He was only a step away
A step that I had to take and it would come in.
God spoke to me.And showed me the way...
I heard him and gave thanks to him.


He told me that the door was never locked.
