This morning I was reading Brother Andrew’s ‘For the Love of My Brothers’ and in it is an analogy he gives for how God opens doors for the Gospel in seemingly impossible situations.
“The door may seem closed, but it’s only closed the way a supermarket door is closed. It stays shut when you remain at a distance, but as you deliberately move toward it, a magic eye above it sees you coming, and the door opens. God is waiting for us to walk forward in obedience so he can open the door for us to serve him.’ chp 2.
I believe Brother Andrew(a.k.a. the God Smuggler) when he says this as he has delivered Bibles and strengthened the suffering church behind the Iron Curtain and today in the Middle East. In countless situations where people have told him, “you can’t do that” it somehow happened anyway and God has delivered him from all of his problems. Appropriately, his ministry is called Open Doors. http://sb.od.org/
