What can you find behind closed doors?
Secrets and lies and deception
Or a life of rebellion
Perhaps a relationship full of distrust
Or maybe even the old you
Behind my closed door
Is a life without Jesus
But it’s so long ago
I barely remember
For knowing Jesus and God
Opened a new world to me
Of love and acceptance
Belonging and grace
Freedom and forgiveness
Life forever with them
And the saints above
And those who left before me
I can’t go back to that closed door
It was sealed behind me forever
And I’m so glad and rejoicing
For who would choose to return
After meeting my Holy Father
My Lord and Saviour who died for me
Nothing is worth anything
Without Him as Lord of my life
About the Creator
Linda Bromley
Just one of many creative outlets for me has been books! My whole life I’ve loved them and it’s so easy to make the jump to writing.
Recently I completed a poetry challenge and now, looking for more excuses to write, I’ve found myself here!
