The House of God

The following prayer was found written over the door of a church:

‘Lord, make the door of this house wide enough to receive all who need human love and fellowship,
narrow enough to shut out all envy, pride and strife.
Make its threshold smooth enough to be no stumbling block to children, nor to straying feet.
Make this house a house of prayer and a gateway to your kingdom.’
