She heard that slow, methodical
knocking at her door, and
she could just picture
those aged, bony
knuckles as her mouth
went dry.
She was about to
answer the summons
and suddenly remembered.
“Jesus, please get that for me.”
The handle turned,
and with absolute authority
He spoke.
“NO VACANCY!”
Adios fear.

I'm a pastor's wife and former homeschooling mom(both kids have graduated) that enjoys life, because Jesus Christ makes my life worth the living. I like to read, write, sing , study Spanish, spend time with family and friends and play word games like Scrabble, Boggle, Balderdash, etc. etc.

Wonderful imagery, Carol. I felt both the tension and its release in this poem.
Thank you, Becky. Fear can be an intense thing, but it is no match for Jesus.
Wow! Beautiful example of how we just need to let go and let God…
