Question the church doors didn't open for me

Hi there, Some thing horrible happened to me today, after a four weeks of absense from church i wanted to go to church today. I did but the automatic doors didnt work. I was standing at teh door for almost 15 mins knocking on the door i could see they are praying and singing. Pastor's wife was at the control doing the powerpoint slides i knocked on teh door so hoping that she could hear but she couldnt.

I thought to flash my mobile phone light but i didnt becuase it looks rediculouse. Why GOD didnt want me to enter that church? Is it GOD or is it Satan who locked me out?

Couple of little kids who were runing at the back row of the church saw me but they didnt tell the others may be they thought i was a some looney from the street. That becuase the church is located in one of horrible streets.

I left the text message on pastor's phone saying that i was there but his door didnt open.
I was very dissapointed. NExt week i got work all day therefore i wouldnt be able to attend the morning or the evening sessions.

Why this happened to me, is it becuase i didnt go to church or i was being bad?

Maybe it's a sign that your church spent too much money on the building. Automatic doors?

Because maybe you were late, and of the nature of the area, the doors were locked for security reasons.

God bless

May have been locks, May have been a evil force keeping you out. Or it may be that the words spoken that day in Church weren't meant for you to hear, eather because it would be harmful to your faith for some reason, or you just didn't need to know.

Many possible reasons.


Maybe those kids were pranksters and glued the doors shut and had a merry time watching you stand there?
Or the doors weren't plugged in and it's thick glass.

Lots of reasons.

If they don't work when you go there again...THEN you might have something to worry about.

Leonidus everything is not a sign- sometimes things just happen.
