When I shut the door to our bedroom at night and settle down to sleep, it’s a blessing to forget the worries of the day. When I think of the fact that Jesus called Himself “the door” (John 10:7,9), I gain a new appreciation for this metaphor. When sheep enter the pen, they enter a safe place protected from thieves and predators. For believers, the Great Shepherd is the door between us and our enemies. Once we enter the sheepfold, we can “forget” all dangers and threats. We can enjoy divine forgetfulness and rest in the protection of the Great Shepherd. Thank You, Father, for the peace of mind that comes from knowing You are standing watch over the events of our lives. Help us to rest securely in Your protection. Christ is the door that keeps us in and keeps the dangers out.{ODB}
