Keys have been around for thousands of years. Everyone has something they want protected, from those tiny keys for diaries, to our doors, our cars, and safe-deposit boxes. Yet many locks can easily be picked, Why bother? Well, I think there is a feeling of safety and security we get from having our keys.

A key is a tool to get through a blockade of some sort. And of course some use substitute tools to get through. So I figure there is a right way and a wrong way to go your own way.
That makes me think of the Bible verse Matthew 7:7-8 NIV:
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”
To me that means Christ is the key.
OK, so maybe you are not religious, or a spiritual type of person, but surely you believe there are powers greater than yourself? And I would hope you have respect for certain principles, eg, compassion, honesty, justice.
So we all search for the right keys to get through life. Once we find the right key we hold onto it. Remember that panicky feeling when we lose our keys? Yep! That is how important it is to have your keys.

As far as giving someone the key to your heart, well, as with anything there is a risk. Good luck with that!
Can you imagine a world without keys? I can’t. There is no way trust will ever be that strong. Nor respect. Nor lawfulness. Yes, our world needs keys to keep our worst instincts from trampling the rights of others. I just wish those who break the law - who are getting away with it - would be behind bars where they cannot have the keys to free themselves. But they get away with things as they use other tools - and fools - to do their bidding. Wait till they go knocking on the Lord’s door! He holds the final key. Theresa M
PS - “Knock-knock” “Who’s there?” “Me” “Me who?”
“Me who lost my keys!”
