Our life is a mansion; rooms filled with doors. The doors are all our choices, possibilities, wants and desires.
Christ, who is our guide, leads us around, showing us the doors we need to go through.
Lots of times we get distracted, wanting to go through different doors. Sometimes we try to "back track", going back the way we came because this door led to a hurtful or painful experience.
God is molding us.
Those experiences are meant to shape us to who He wants us to be. We just need to keep our eyes on Him, our guide, and keep following, until He leads us through the exit.
What door are you trying to open?

Listening
I wonder how many times we read the Holy Book, then forget what we read and do our own thing? Are we really taking in what we've read? Are we really listening to what the scripture is saying to us?
Maybe we should take the earplugs out of our ears and listen to what God is saying to us as we read His word.
