I prayed for an open door
But the doors kept closing
God was at work
Humbling me, breaking me
I prayed for an open door
And the door stayed shut
God kept revealing
My weakness, my sinful nature
I prayed for an open door
And the door is opening
But I remember my weaknesses
And my heart fills with fear and insecurity
He kept the door closed
Long enough to show me
That I cannot walk through that door
On who or what I am
And I realize
God only opens a door
When He knows we will
let Him walk through the door for us.
