The Life on the Other Side of the Door

Friday, November 19, 2021

A young man enters a room. An old man is standing by a door, he's miserable. The old man says, "Don't open that door." He opens the door and he's on this beautiful island, with everything he needed and a mansion. He goes in the mansion. There's a door and a man says, "Don't go in that door." He opens the door and it's a beautiful land. He's welcomed as king, marries a beautiful queen and has servants. He's in the palace, sees a door and a guy says, "Don't go in that door." He opens that door and he's back in the original place. He's miserable like the old man sitting there. Proverbs 5:15 says, "Drink waters from your own cistern." The secret of a joyous life is to stop dwelling on the woman you don't have, rejoice in the wife you do. Stop dwelling on the home you don't have, rejoice in the home you do. Stop dwelling on the blessing you don't have, start thanking God for the blessings you do have. If God is in your life, there's heaven in your life. Don't miss it longing for what you don't have and miss what you do.
