When this man heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. So Jesus said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe.” The official said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” Jesus said to him, “Go; your son will live.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went on his way. You don’t really know what is in the other room through the door. The only way you can find out is to step through the door. Since you know that this door is in a cabin in a national park, it is very likely safe. It doesn’t take a lot of faith to step through the door. Unlike this simple action, there are times in our lives when taking the next step through an open door will take great faith. The man in this story came to Jesus desperate for Jesus to heal his son. He had a choice to believe Jesus and go or turn the other way, defeated and dejected. He chose to go and found his son healed when he returned home. We also have a choice each day - to believe and step through the door open for us or to turn away. Today make a step of faith towards Jesus, even if it only a small step. You will find what you truly seek.
Prayer Jesus, Strengthen our faith today. Give us courage to take a step of faith through the door that you open for us today. Amen
