Doors Opened And Closed

Our God can open any door, making things better than before,

That last place in which He chose, to permit that door to close.

He takes us on a chosen path, through that uncertain aftermath,

Working out all for our good, doing for us what we never could.



Nothing can hinder God at all, no matter how big, or how small,

He, who moves the heart of a king, is not hindered by anything.

God always works in His time, a schedule that is so unlike mine,

As God deals with me faithfully, I need to wait on God patiently.



Seeing no doors opened now, I must not question why or how?

As all doors still seem closed, to see what is not yet disclosed,

When I do not understand, knowing His heart, I see God’s hand.

As it may be a time for me to wait, while God’s help I anticipate.



Some doors are closed to stay, and inaccessible to our dismay,

Forced out of a comfort zone, but, we’re not forced to go alone,

Moved by God’s plan instead, guided by Grace, to move ahead,

And in His Grace, strength we find, to leave familiar ways behind.



Whether doors are closed or left ajar, in your earthly life thus far,

God will always open one for us, when in Him we place our trust,

And believers need not to despair, as our Lord shall always care,

For each one of us until we see, the Glorious Door up in Eternity.
