“Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is he, this King of glory? The Lord Almighty— he is the King of glory.”

– Psalm 24:8-10 NIV

The door seems like an animate object; however, one can perceive it as inanimate. During the preparation for a Freedom Challenge, one must focus on an opening. This opening has many perspectives as everyone’s journey is their own. As mother and daughter, the door physically closes as we make the literal departure from our home and go separate destinations; however, the door truly remains open to allow Christ’s strength, protection and blessings guide us on our personal journey.

The door that remains ajar is the one we must seek in order to obtain our assignment from our King of Glory. We must be willing to take that leap of faith and step outside the door. Sometimes it requires that we leave our comfort and the ones we love for a little bit, but it encourages us that we can grow and seek out the journey we are destined for. We all have different interpretations. And when we commit to the task at hand, we may just ultimately discover the King of Glory in a new light and when we do, may we find that deep radiant light that illuminates our whole being.
